Falcons land Michigan EDGE, Liberty QB in new Draft Wire mock

The 2022 NFL draft class is considered fairly deep at the edge rusher position and that’s a great thing for the Atlanta Falcons, who have three picks in the top 60.

Falcons outside linebacker Dante Fowler is a free agent and it’s unlikely the team can afford to keep him. Will Atlanta use its first-round pick (No. 8 overall) on a new edge rusher?

Purdue’s George Karlaftis has been a popular projection to the Falcons, however, in Draft Wire’s latest three-round mock, the team uses that No. 8 pick on a different edge rusher from the Big Ten.
