The Atlanta Falcons addressed the wide receiver position in free agency by signing Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud. The team also acquired WR Rondale Moore in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals.
While these new pieces should complement Drake London and Kyle Pitts, the talent in this year’s draft class could entice the team into taking another wide receiver. Atlanta currently holds the No. 8 overall pick and three wideouts are projected to go in the top 10.
Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr., Washington’s Rome Odunze and LSU’s Malik Nabers will likely be selected before pick No. 8, but you can’t rule anything out.
LSU had its Pro Day on Wednesday and Nabers stole the show. The speedy wideout ran the 40-yard dash in 4.35 seconds. Watch below, as shared by the NFL’s Twitter account.
