If you didn’t see, the Atlanta Falcons stayed put at pick 47 on day two of the NFL Draft, despite the continued rumors that they have been looking to always trade up (just yearly smoke at this point) and took defensive lineman Marlon Davidson out of Auburn. At first glance, Davidson’s stats are as flashy as someone such as A.J. Epenesa, who was taken a few picks later, but are still solid:
2019: 49 total tackles, 30 solo tackles, 12.5 tackles for loss, 7.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles.
Davidson was finally able to put it together in his senior season, notching career highs in nearly every defensive category, earning a first-team All-SEC selection.
