I am STOKED about this pick. Great pick for us.

who do you all want next?

Ealy, Van Noy, Hyde even?

Trade up a little for Dee Ford?

Stephon Tuitt has my vote, but he'll be gone in the 4 before us.

Then Ealy.

Hell even Louis Nix has to get some consideration even though we don't need him. I am happy where we are at.

We could go sideways and go Amaro, Sua-Filo, etc.

Yea i think Tuitt fits us well for 3-4 de.

It will be fun to see where we go but My vote is Ealy.

Shit even our new draftie Mathews said that Ealy gave him Fits lol.

If somehow both Ealy and Tuiit are gone i guess we can take Lawrence from Boise or maybe Van Noy... Nix would also be awesome.... Alot of good players fell into our laps I think.

when 3rd round comes along we should have the pick of the litter for Rbs and TE's.... Saftey pool is really small right now with prospects i like but will have to see what happens.

Jake Mathews- “I can honestly say Atlanta was the place I wanted to be,” he said. “It’s a great organization. I love everything they stand for, where they’re going. They’re a great team and I’m really excited to be a part of it and really help this team win.”

Matthews will get a chance to face his cousin his very first year. The Falcons travel to Green Bay to meet the Packers and Clay III, a four-time Pro Bowl linebacker, in a Monday night game Dec. 8.

"I'm fired up about it," Jake said. "Talking to my dad, some of his greatest memories in pro football were going against his brother. Clay is an All-Pro and a stud. It's going to be a huge challenge. But I know that's why Atlanta picked me. To go in and take care of the quarterback, take care of Matt Ryan. I'm going to go in and prove that I can."

Matthews, who considers Missouri’s Kony Ealy the toughest defender he faced in the SEC, is considered the most technically sound of the top tackles.

Really good read in order to See our 1st round pick Mathew's Mind set and thoughts about Atlanta.


Btw, Conference about draft with Atlanta.... Dimi wanted to trade back into the first but couldn't find anyone willing to "dance" was most likely targeting Safety or Pass Rusher.

That's alright.. I am 100% okay with Matthews. He was 3rd on my big board for us.
