The Atlanta Falcons were expected to be far better than 4-12 last season. On paper, they seem to have more talent than that record would indicate.

The Falcons find themselves with the No. 6 pick in their year's draft, and they may have been looking to trade up even higher in the draft - with a top pass rushing prospect believed to be at the top of their list.

Atlanta could also look to draft a replacement for future Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez, who retired after the season.

Needs: Pass rusher, offensive tackle, tight end
