Atlanta Falcons coach Dan Quinn has made it rather clear: He's looking for competitive toughness.
The Falcons need more "tough guys" up front on both sides of the ball. They need a big, physical defensive tackle to pair alongside playmaker Grady Jarrett. They could use three bruisers along the offensive line next to perennial Pro Bowl center Alex Mack and left tackle Jake Matthews. That's why this is an important draft as Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff try to beef up the lines.
Improving the offensive and defensive lines should be the direction the Falcons go with the 14th overall pick in the first round and perhaps the 45th overall pick in the second round.
