Drafting a quarterback would be a mistake for the Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons would be making a huge mistake by drafting a quarterback with the fourth pick in the NFL Draft later this month.

The quarterback position is not an area of need at the moment for the Atlanta Falcons. Matt Ryan is coming off of a great year, one in which he didn’t have his best wide receiver on the field for almost half of it and still threw for over 4,500 yards and 26 touchdowns.

However, according to a report from NFL Insider Chris Mortensen, GM Terry Fontenot could be looking at drafting a quarterback, while Arthur Smith believes that Ryan still has years to go before he is finished.
