Taylor Lewan
|
"I will say we stay put and protect our biggest asset with Taylor Lewan. Matt Ryan has the weapons and he needs the protection. Thomas Dimitroff will do some moving and shaking in later rounds as I think the cost of trading up to get Jadeveon Clowney is just too much."

Jadeveon Clowney
|
"I don't believe the Falcons will draft at Number 6. I believe they will initiate a deal with the Houston Texans to acquire the Number 1 overall pick in the draft. With that pick, the Falcons will select Jadeveon Clowney from the University of South Carolina. Clowney is a one-of-a-kind talent that is unparalleled in this draft. I believe we will make an aggressive high risk/high reward play on Clowney."

Greg Robinson
|
"The O-line needs to be addressed and still feel picking at No. 6 that we could add a difference maker. The guy I think we take at 6 is Greg Robinson out of Auburn. At 6-foot-5, 322 pounds, Robinson has all the tools to become an elite tackle over the next 10 years."

Jadeveon Clowney
| "I believe the Falcons will move up to take the second pick from the St. Louis Rams and with it select Jadeveon Clowney. He is an exciting player to watch with special skills that will allow him to get after the quarterback. He is not only a great player, but would be a great ambassador for the team and would instantly bring excitement to the city of Atlanta." |

Khalil Mack
|
"I think it will come down to Khalil Mack. Or maybe Jadeveon Clowney (hard to believe possible). My guess is they will go with Mack, unless Clowney shows up like he's Forest Whitaker in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Ahhhhhhhh!"

Khalil Mack

"He will be the best available edge pass rusher. Clowney won't make it that deep in the draft."

Jake Matthews
|
"He is a worthy No. 1 pick that could fall in Atlanta's lap. Atlanta has drafted an offensive lineman in the first round just once the past 22 seasons. The team needs an anchor on the line's most important position and Matthews could be that guy."

Greg Robinson
|
"The Falcons can't justify taking any defensive player (outside of Clowney) after the sacks Matty Ice took last year. They have to shore up the offensive line. Reading comparisons of Greg Robinson to Larry Allen (one of the all time greats) makes this pick a no-brainer. He has huge upside, he had a huge Combine, and that leads me to believe with NFL coaching Greg Robinson is the perfect fit at 6 for the Falcons. I just hope he's around when they pick!"

Jadeveon Clowney

"I think that he is NFL ready, and people tell me we favor him, so he's my pick all the way!"

Jake Matthews

"I'm going to say Jake Matthews for the Falcons. He looks like he can handle himself on and off the field."

Khalil Mack
|
"To get the edge up on our competition we need a powerful and fast edge rusher and he is our guy. Mack is hungry for a Super Bowl contender team and therefore will want to spend his lunch hour with the Atlanta Falcons."
