Falcons Could Trade Up For Offensive Tackle
5 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons have done the groundwork and have talked to several teams inside the top 10 picks in the first round about trading up on Thursday night. Most everyone assumes that Atlanta would be moving up to select a cornerback in the top 10, but the Falcons have also done video interviews with multiple top tackles that would surely be off the board by the Falcons pick at No. 16 overall. The top two corner prospects are Ohio State's Jeff Okudah and Florida's C.J. Henderson, but Atlanta could also use upgrades on the offensive line after swinging and missing there in the draft recently. We could see all four of the top offensive linemen in this year's class come off the board early in the first round.
