Tight end is far from the Atlanta Falcons’ biggest need. The defense is in need of upgrades at defensive end and linebacker, but could they make a move for tight end Hunter Henry in the second round?
Henry would be the definition of taking the best player available, assuming he’s top of the Falcons’ board at No. 50. While there are bigger needs on the team, adding a player of Henry’s caliber would give the offense a significant upgrade.
Julio Jones was relied on too heavily in 2015. Kyle Shanahan’s approach makes sense: Jones is the best player on the team and you want to give him the football as often as possible.
