#6 Atlanta Falcons: Khalil Mack, OLB Buff
Rory’s Take: The Falcons could really use a stud pass rusher and Mack plays more 43 defensive end than 34 outside linebacker making him a natural fit here.
Chase’s Take: If Jake Matthews is on the board the Falcons have no choice but to find more protection for Matt Ryan with the best tackle available. Mack might be a player the Falcons could use, but Matthews will likely be their pick due to their pass protection issues hamstringing their offense for all of 2013.
