Here is the complete 2016 NFL Draft order for the Atlanta Falcons.
The Atlanta Falcons are about to begin their second year under head coach Dan Quinn and the team is hoping that they can take the success that they had in the first half of the 2015 season into 2016. The Falcons got off to an undefeated start last year, before the team flamed out and could not keep the momentum that they had built up early.
By the end of the season, it was yet another .500 season for the Falcons and people were wondering if the team had topped out. If they don’t want to be topped out and want to push themselves back into being a playoff team under quarterback Matt Ryan, then the Falcons need a solid draft that could really infuse more talent into the roster.
The Falcons are in pretty good shape after free agency, where they signed one of the best centers in the league in Alex Mack. Now they can continue to build from where they are at in the draft starting on Thursday. They have forfeited their fifth-round pick this year. Here is the complete 2016 NFL Draft order for the Falcons.
