Atlanta Falcons take LB Deion Jones from LSU in second round
Placeholder Image
The Atlanta Falcons have taken LSU linebacker Deion Jones in the second round of the NFL draft to shore up a pass rush that’s been among the NFL’s worst over the last three years. Jones joins Florida safety Keanu Neal, drafted 17th overall, as second-year coach Dan Quinn seeks upgrades in the front seven. Jones was a team captain last season, leading LSU in tackles and in stops for lost yardage.
