The Atlanta Falcons picked up a huge asset for their growing defense, selecting Deion Jones out of LSU in the linebacker position. Jones is a great fit for Quinn’s defensive scheme, standing at 6-foot-1 and weighing in at 222 pounds.
Jones had a decent combine, but where he really shined was his pro day, where he ran a 4.38 forty-yard dash time, which is very impressive for a linebacker. Some mock drafts even had Jones going in the first round, meaning that the Falcons got a great value pick with huge upside.
