Atlanta Falcons Mock: Draft Week Edition

Basing the selections on pre-draft visits, schematic fit and team need, here are the six players I think Atlanta will target in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Round 3, Pick 78: LB Logan Wilson, Wyoming

The Falcons lost starting strongside linebacker De’Vondre Campbell in free agency, and seem to have been putting an importance on day-2 linebackers in the class. Campbell was an essential piece of the Atlanta’s defense and was tasked with coverage duties and hash-to-hash zone coverages. Here, you add Logan Wilson who could occupy the same role that Campbell thrived in. Wilson’s a rangy guy with good production that could fill his gap in the run game and effectively drop into zone coverages. If you think back to the 2019 draft, Atlanta tried trading up for Devin Bush and Quincy Williams, so the team clearly puts a high price on that LB2 role.
