LINK

5. Missouri DE Shane Ray (Washington Redskins)
6. Alabama WR Amari Cooper (New York Jets)
7. Florida DE Dante Fowler Jr. (Atlanta Falcons)
9. Alabama S Landon Collins (Chicago Bears)
11. Texas A&M OT Cedric Ogbuehi (Minnesota Vikings)
27. LSU OT La’El Collins (Indianapolis Colts)
28. Mississippi State LB Benardrick McKinney (Green Bay Packers)
29. Georgia RB Todd Gurley (Seattle Seahawks)
30. Kentucky DE Bud Dupree (Arizona Cardinals)
31. South Carolina G A.J. Cann (New England Patriots)


Hope this is true, even though I'd like to see Gurley land at the Falcons I would be happy to see him go where he can play for titles.

Seattle would be a great fit for him too. I've heard him say in interviews that he tries to mimic Marshawn Lynch. He would immediately fit right into that offense.

Would be a good fit for both.

I think Lynch is gone. TG would be a great fit for them. Hope he lands on a good team like this

We aren't burning an early pick on Gurley when we have Jackson and just took Freeman in the second or third last year. I mean maybe if the injury held him out until the 4th or something, but theres little chance of that.

I like Freeman in Atlanta and think he could be a rock solid back for a long time. Gurley needs to go somewhere that will utilize his receiving skills as well as his power running ability. Detroit comes to mind, but he would be a nightmare for the rest of the league in New England.

Agree 100%. I'd actually be pissed if the Falcons took a RB in round 1 or 2. Got to fix that defense and O line. But hey, I still want Gurley on my team

Also agree that Lynch may be gone from Seattle after this season, but Gurley should be able to fill that void seamlessly if he ends up there.

Hopefully the falcons draft a coach and GM in the first and second round.

If TG is there for the Falcons in the 2nd round, they should totally draft him.

Gurley would fit into Seattle nicely. That team would be scary if they can work out some their salary cap issues.

Falcons need pass rush more than anything else. The OL has actually been solid here in recent weeks as the current group has finally had some continuity. Pass rush, safety help, a #2 WR (because it's becoming obvious that Roddy is near the end), maybe some linebacker help because I'm still not sold on Worrilow and Bartu.

We could maybe get Harbaugh for a second or third round pick...

Seattle's salary cap issues will only get worse when they have to pay Russell Wilson.

Don't see him ending up in Seattle. They have Turbin and Christine Michael behind Lynch both of whom are pretty good RBs in their own right. Depending on how quickly his recovery is, I could see a RB needy team draft him between 15 - 25.

Detroit, New England, Indianapolis (imagine THAT offense with a legitimate running threat), San Diego (Mathews always injured), Denver (I can't even...that's a scary thought) could all make Gurley a frightening NFL player.

I think Seattle is a great fit, but would love to see him as a Colt. I'm a Luck fan and that duo would be terrifying.

I just want Gurley to go to a winning team somewhere. Would love to see him in Seattle, they play the same style he does. For his sake, I'd rather him not become a Falcon honestly.

I just want him to become a household name wherever he ends up.

Amari Cooper is Top 3, IMO. You don't just let a perennial pro-bowler like that slide to #6.
