The Atlanta Falcons look to be narrowing down who they want to hire. A lot of the conversation has been had about who the Falcons will hire first. It looks like that will be the general manager.
Whoever the Falcons hire, the first order of business will be to figure out what they are going to do in the upcoming draft.
The Falcons have the fourth overall pick, and if things go their way they should be able to get a pretty good player. D. Orlando Ledbetter, of the AJC, joined the Jon Chuckery show and put on his proverbial general manager hat.
"You take the best player available," Ledbetter said.
The previous regime traditionally has drafted on a need basis and it has gotten them in trouble at times. With the new regime set to come in, maybe a new approach will help this team get back on track after three straight losing seasons.
