The Falcons aren’t going to draft a CB in the first round

With the 2019 NFL season officially over, mock drafts are starting to come in hot and heavy from news sites across the internet. Most seem to have the Falcons taking a defensive tackle with their first round pick—a desire that is shared by many in the fanbase. A few have given the Falcons OT or EDGE help, which are also two of Atlanta’s biggest needs. Lately, however, we’ve been seeing a new hot pick for the Falcons: LSU CB Greedy Williams.

Williams is one of the top CB prospects in the 2019 NFL Draft, and the thought seems to be that he’s simply too good of a value for Atlanta to pass up.
