During Thomas Dimitroff’s first 11 NFL drafts as the Atlanta Falcons general manager, he has shown the ability to make things happen for players that he covets. With nine selections in this week’s draft, we should expect Dimitroff to use several of them to obtain players he thinks will make a big difference on the roster.
If you are not aware – Dimitroff is damn good at this trading draft picks thing…
Quick recap of a few of the trades that Thomas Dimitroff has made during his time in Atlanta;
2008: Dimitroff traded several picks with the Redskins to select Sam Baker, Harry Douglas and Kroy Biermann
2011: They draft trade that will go down in NFL history as one of the most lopsided trades to ever take place.
