Falcons Round Two NFL Mock Draft (Update)

We no longer have a 2nd round pick this year because we traded up to get this man. I'm not complaining.

This post was supposed to have a link to an SBN mock draft from Round 2, but as of 2:23 am EST, no such post exists.

That is all a moot point since we no longer have a second round pick, as we sold out to pick beast WR Julio Jones. Let me take a moment and say that I love the fact that we were able to get JJ. Also, I was incredibly amused at (reader's name evades me) whoever pointed out that we now have a trifecta of JJ's in Atlanta, namely Joe Johnson, Jair Jurrjens, and now Julio Jones.

I wonder what Jessie Tuggle is going to do now that we don't have a second rounder anymore? Perhaps he was given advance notice of this and stayed home.

In any case, we no longer have a second round pick, so fans of Jernigan, Young, and Hankerson are just out of luck. But when I think of those three in comparison to who we did get, I like who we picked.

Round 2 and 3 are tonight. We'll likely only pick one player today. Who's on the Taiwan Jones bandwagon?

And, to make this a bit more discussion lively, were there any surprises from day 1 you thought were interesting?
