NFL Draft 2015: Falcons Select Jalen Collins No. 42 Overall

The pick is in. The Atlanta Falcons have selected defensive back Jalen Collins with the No. 42 selection of the 2015 NFL Draft. Is this the right move for the Falcons?

Collins has a blend of size and speed, and is the next addition to Dan Quinn’s defense as the Falcons aim to improve the unit that ranked dead last in 2014.

With outside linebacker Vic Beasley selected in the first round, is this the right move for the Falcons in the second?

For GM Thomas Dimitroff, it’s important to build a team new head coach Dan Quinn can compete with.
