sad news : unexpected Atlanta trade Mock Draft …..
With the eighth overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft, the Atlanta Falcons are in a vulnerable position.
Although the club has that pick for the third straight year, they might not be able to obtain the best value by sticking put given their focus on the quarterback position.
NFL.com has forecasted a transaction involving the Arizona Cardinals and LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels to move up to No. 4 in order to choose Daniels.
“Atlanta pounces before another team moves up for the Heisman Trophy winner’s services,” says NFL.com. “Daniels brings dual-threat electricity to the Falcons’ offense under new head coach Raheem Morris.”
Daniels has the potential to be the icing on the cake for Atlanta’s offensive scheme. Following three years in a row in which the Falcons selected prominent skill players, they may try to find someone who can inspire all of them to reach their full potential.
Daniels passed for 3,812 yards and an astounding 40 touchdowns at LSU during the previous season. With 1,134 yards and 10 touchdowns, he led the Tigers in running. He was particularly dangerous on the ground.

Daniels, a native of San Bernardino, California, where he played for Cajon High School, is 6-3 and weighs 200 pounds. He signed with the Arizona State Sun Devils first as a four-star recruit there before moving to LSU later in his career.
He may now remain in the Southeast as the Falcons’ possible franchise quarterback going forward.
