7 LB prospects the Falcons could target in the draft

As a former fourth-round pick, linebacker De’Vondre Campbell is set to finally cash in on his outstanding production, just not likely in Atlanta.

Patrick Queen — LSU

2019 Stats: 85 tackles (37 solo), 3 sacks, 1 fumble recovery, 1 INT, 2 passes defended

Projection: Rounds 1-2

Analysis: Queen definitely helped his stock at the scouting combine by running a blazing 40-yard dash. He would be a steal for the Falcons in the second round, although he’s unlikely to make it out of the first. Queen’s LSU teammate K’Lavon Chaisson is more of a true EDGE, but with De’Vondre Campbell possibly leaving Atlanta, there is a need for an outside linebacker. Queen has sideline-to-sideline speed, an ability to drop in coverage and projects to be a three-down starter in the NFL.
