Trading out of the No. 4 spot might be the best way for the Falcons to fill out their roster, but what if they luck out into a franchise QB along the way? Could a quarterback like Justin Fields or Trey Lance happen to slip to No. 9 overall after a trade with the Broncos? The Falcons would likely sprint to the podium for one of these two if they were available after letting the Broncos have their pick.
In this scenario, we’ve used the Mock Draft Machine from The Draft Network. After a trade down, we lucked into a franchise quarterback at No. 9 overall. And just like the Falcons would do in real life, we sprinted to the podium for a quarterback who seemed to slip for no real reason.
