My take: Owner Arthur Blank made it clear before the draft that the Falcons needed to get younger along the offensive line. But it's still somewhat of a surprise to see a guard selected with the 14th overall pick. Usually, an offensive lineman taken that high is a tackle. Right now, there are no plans to move Lindstrom to tackle even though he played there during the 2017 college season. A variety of folks who scouted Lindstrom said he's extremely tough, and the Falcons sorely need toughness up front to not only open holes in the running game but to protect Matt Ryan, who was sacked 42 times last season -- the second-most times in his career.
