With the 2020 NFL Draft somehow just a week and a few days away, the Atlanta Falcons find themselves in a oddly fortuitous position.
Sure, a lot folks would’ve loved to have a few of those wins back so that the team would sit a bit higher in the draft day pecking order, but sitting at 16, in and of itself, has its perks.
The Falcons, just by the numbers, land a sure-fire contributor for its defense where they are, by jumping up a few spots or by moving down the board a little.
