If Mykel Williams is on the board when Atlanta's number is called they should sprint their selection up to the podium. It seems very unlikely that Williams is going to be on the board at this point in the draft. There has also been the suggestion the Falcons could trade down to add additional picks. Atlanta lost a pick due to tampering and to add veteran pass rusher Matthew Judon. Trading down makes a level of sense and if that happens there is zero chance you're adding Williams. The Georgia Bulldog is arguably the second-best pass-rushing prospect in this draft. All of the concerns with Williams can be improved with the right coaching and scheme. His elite motor and willingness to chase plays cannot be coached. It is the type of effort Atlanta's defensive line has been lacking and would make Atlanta's pass rush far better.
