Falcons Have Second Interview With Bill Belichick (Now Likely To Be Falcons HC)

Atlanta has a lot of draft capital. Their first pick is #8 overall (1400 draft points), they also have a second rounder #43 overall (470 draft points) and two third #74 overall (220 draft points) and #79 overall (195 draft points). This last pick #79, can move up to #48 overall (420 draft points) if Jacksonville reaches a contract extension with Calvin Ridley. (That was a SLICK trade by Atlanta.)

If Ridley signs an extension with Jacksonville, that would give Atlanta the following draft picks with these draft trade points.

#8 (1400 points)
#43 (470 points)
#48 (420 points)
#74 (220 points)
Total 2510, without a Ridley extension it's 2285 points.

To get up to #2 overall (Washington), it would take at least 2600 points. They could almost get there with just these picks, if the Jacksonvulle 3rd becomes a 2nd.

To get to #3 overall (New England), it would take at least 2200 draft points. To get to #4 overall (Arizona) it would take at least 1800 draft points.

Face it, Atlanta is going to try to make a big move up to get one of the top 3 QB's in this draft if they really want one. They will have enough draft picks to move up.

BB, with a rookie QB, who turns out to be good, could put the hurt to this division for years.
