Although Julio Jones might rewrite the record books when all is said and done, Deion Sanders, the fifth overall pick in the 1989 NFL draft, has to go down as the franchise's top draft pick ever.
Why Sanders is best draft pick in Atlanta Falcons history: For starters, Sanders is a Hall of Famer as part of the 2011 class. The flashy cornerback from Florida State was a three-time Pro Bowl starter during his five seasons with the Falcons. "Prime Time" was also an electrifying return man. He had five kick-return touchdowns with the Falcons in 70 games to go with three interceptions returned for touchdowns and two touchdown receptions on offense.
