The Falcons took two safeties back-to-back in the 7th round. Would they keep both of them?
The Pick:Kemal Ishmael, Safety, 243rd overall
Their Impact:Ishmael has over 200 career tackles and is still on the Falcons roster.
He has 20 career starts, five interceptions, and was a solid 7th round choice.
Who Else Was Available That Round?:In this respective exercise, nobody. The Falcons had the next pick.
Would the Falcons Change Their Pick?:Although they don’t have the option, I think the Falcons would keep this pick. Ishmael has been a solid contributor.
The Pick:Zeke Motta, Safety, 244th overall
Their Impact:Motta played 10 games during his rookie year, and had 16 tackles.
His career ended shortly afterward.
Who Else Was Available That Round?:Daimion Stafford was drafted after Motta and is pretty much our only option here.
Stafford has over 100 career tackles, appeared in more than 50 games, and even made 8 starts.
Would the Falcons Change Their Pick?:Yes.
Stafford has to be the option here considering Motta’s lack of impact.
