32. Atlanta Falcons

DT. Auburn. Derrick Brown . 32. player. 44.

He hasn’t had his breakout season yet, but Derrick Brown has flashed constantly as a solid two-way defensive tackle at Auburn. He’s already a reliable run defender who can shut down gaps with his strength. The more intriguing element is his interior rush, constantly flashing last season despite just 3.5 sacks. Giving him to Dan Quinn, one of the top defensive coaches in the league and a defensive line specialist is a terrific move by the Atlanta Falcons. He joins an already stacked front seven and could offer them another key piece to an intriguing pass rush they’ve been cultivating the past couple years.
