Mock drafts are getting “fine tuned” thanks to rumors and reading the tea leaves, as there’s excitement around one prospect while another struggles with workouts and interviews. This is the part of the offseason where those prospects start getting slotted, player X is a top-10 pick, player Y is primarily seeing interest from teams in the back end of the 1st round, etc. It all means we start seeing a lot more consistency in mock drafts vs. those from three or four months back.
Picks have aligned for the Atlanta Falcons. While there are still a few sending Atlanta an EDGE like Tyree Wilson or Lukas Van Ness, and a rare pick of OL Peter Skoronski and even RB Bijan Robinson, the mock draft favorite is far and away CB Christian Gonzalez from Oregon.
