Figure with the draft happening tomorrow we could compile any draft rumors we see in one place.
JBen: Says that Latu is our guy, but the team wants to trade down. If Latu isn't there after trading down they'll take whomever is next on their board.
Fowler: "Multiple people have told me this week that they believe the Falcons like Penix a lot." Maybe the team would trade back into the 1st if they do like Penix so much?
Marino: Falcons listed in teams that have made calls on trading up in the draft.

For the first year in 4-5 years…I truly don’t know who the pick is. I thought it was gonna be Dallas Turner for the last like 2 months but now I’ve flipped and think it’s gonna either be Latu or Byron Murphy. I feel like they want someone that is ready to make an impact Day 1. Interested in everyone else’s thoughts here
[Daniel Jeremiah said the Falcons will likely look for a pass rusher, but Dallas Turner hasn’t separated himself; included Byron Murphy in the convo with the 3 edge rushers; said the 8th pick could be a good trade-up spot, not just for WR, but also for OL](https://x.com/bryce_lewis86/status/1781434561106198942?s=46&t=-OdMdWEnL4Djq896aA6Z2Q)
I think it’ll be Latu but it wouldn’t surprise me if Odunze is on the board that we take him since Fontenot is set on BPA. I don’t see anyway Alt is available at 8 but if he is that’s no brainer to me at least.
I haven’t really been following many draft rumors but it appears that Jared Verse isn’t on most of the mock drafts or rumors for the Falcons. Anyone know why?
Just glad it’s the first year under Fontenot where our first round pick isn’t obvious.
Time for the Brock Bowers jokes to come out again?
I’ve honestly talked myself into Latu. After watching a bunch of interviews with him including the Maxx Crosby one he is an absolute dawg. Comes from a ton of adversity, has a really good head on his shoulders and seems super super intelligent. Also wants to be the best and says he learns a lot from watching guys like Crosby, TJ Watt, etc. He’s got the right makeup and I think that’s something that Terry and Raheem probably love about him.
Joe Alt fall into our lap dear baby jesus
Im still coming from left field with Verse
It’s not Cam Marino reporting – it’s Breer
Wish I could block this thumbnail from showing up in any of my feeds
I think we’re just gonna have to trust in Terry
idk wtf we are planning to do but i’d be the happiest man on earth if we go turner at 8 and trade into the 1st for penix
Just like the markets. We’ll go up. Or we’ll go down. Or stay where we are.
And FTS.
DT from Texas Byron Murphy III is what some sources are saying
