Falcons may move down, not up

[Captain Morgan]

Recently, though, Atlanta general manager Thomas Dimitroff  told reporters moving down is also a possibility.

 

Dimitroff was asked about the potential idea of swapping picks with the Texans, though he stated he couldn’t get into the specifics, so little was talked about in regards to moving up.

As far as moving down, the Falcons (who currently own the 6th pick) do need multiple impact players (especially on both the offensive and defensive lines) and acquiring multiple picks could help the team expedite the rebuilding of their trenches.

Dimitroff stated the team had fielded calls for their selection so there appears to be definite interest, though said he believed that there wouldn’t be any massive deals completed before the draft.

The general manager also stated that he’s under the impression that most teams do not want to trade out of the top 10, so it could be that Dimitroff is looking to use that to his advantage for teams looking to move up.

I could buy this. They are probably targeting one of Clowney, Mack or Robinson while believing that outside of those three, the next guy they may want could be had later. That's if they arent sold on Matthews and Lewan as top 10 talent anyway.

There is a better chance that Alice gets laid this week-end than for us to move from #28 to #3.  In other words.....ZERO chance.

The Ravens don't have pick #3.

Other Falcon News: PFT says they're working out Dan Connor.

Dimitroff is litetally the most annoying person I have ever seen or heard talk. So glad we have an awesome GM with nipple shorts
