Falcons Trade Back in Second Round

Thomas Dimitroff said last week he'd be open to making a trade to acquire more draft selections, and that's exactly what he did Friday night.

Just before the Falcons were on the clock at No. 50 overall, Dimitroff dealt that choice to the Houston Texans, who sent back their second-rounder (No. 52 overall) and sixth-rounder (No. 195 overall).

Atlanta now has six picks. The first was used on defensive back Keanu Neal.
