For their first pick, the Falcons kept it in the state with University of Georgia linebacker Jalon Walker.
Walker, 21, spent three seasons with the Dawgs, capping it off by winning the Butkus Award for the nation’s best linebacker last season.
After a swap with the LA Rams, the Falcons got a second first-round pick and kept it in the SEC with the University of Tennessee’s James Pearce Jr. as the No. 26 pick.
No second-round picks for the Falcons meant their next selection came in the overall No. 96 spot in round three.
They used it to grab Notre Dame safety Xavier Watts.
Heading into the final four rounds on Saturday, the Falcons got their first pick of the day in the overall No. 118 spot in the fourth round.
