| What Are The Atlanta Falcons Draft Picks |
So, what'd the Falcons grab this year in the draft?
The Big Ticket: Michael Penix Jr., Quarterback (Washington). Looks like the Falcons are finally addressing their quarterback woes! Or at least hoping to. Penix Jr. comes with a strong arm and a whole lot of potential. Here's hoping he doesn't get sacked more than a grocery bag in a hurricane.
Tip: Write down what you learned.
Defense Wins Championships (We Hope): The Falcons also went heavy on defense this year, snagging some impressive guys like Ruke Orhorhoro (DT, Clemson) and Bralen Trice (EDGE, Washington). Maybe they finally realized that offense isn't everything (even if it is pretty fun to watch touchdowns).
QuickTip: Break reading into digestible chunks.
The Day Three Mystery Box: The later rounds of the draft are always a bit of a gamble, but the Falcons grabbed some interesting prospects like running back Jase McClellan (Alabama) and wide receiver Casey Washington (Illinois). Will they be stars? Who knows! But hey, that's the beauty of the draft, right?
QuickTip: Don’t ignore the small print.
Falcons Fans: Prepare for...
- Endless debates about whether Penix Jr. is the real deal. Buckle up, folks. This one's gonna rage on Twitter for months.
- A new wave of "Dirty Bird" chants. Because nothing gets a crowd pumped like a well-timed interception (or a touchdown, whichever comes first).
- The inevitable comparisons to past draft picks. How will these rookies stack up against the legends (and not-so-legends) of Falcons drafts gone by?
