Falcons have easy fixes to solve defensive tackle depth

The 2018 NFL Draft has brought Atlanta a host of new players, including a fresh face at nose tackle in South Florida’s Deadrin Seant.

Senat will be expected to pick up a load of Dontari Poe’s vacated snaps on the defensive line. He looks built for the part, and has impressive college production and tape to follow. But, rookies are still rookies, and particularly for one taken in the third round, shouldn’t be expected to be a Poe right away.

The Falcons are still going to need to bracket time between Senat and a veteran nose tackle.
