The Atlanta Falcons took elite playmaker and tight end Kyle Pitts with the fourth overall pick earlier tonight, now it is time that they make a move in order to get their future running back.

While the Atlanta Falcons have the third overall pick in the second round on Friday night, they should jump back into the first round and grab one of the two elite running backs in this draft, Clemson’s Travis Etienne or Alabama’s Najee Harris.
