You can never really have too many good corners, and the Atlanta Falcons know that very well.
Auburn’s Carlton Davis has size, standing 6-1 and weighing over 200 pounds, to compete with the big NFL receivers.

Davis, a three-year starter for the Tigers, recorded four career interceptions and made 136 tackles. That included a 56-tackle season as a freshman when he picked off three passes.
In all, Davis defended 28 passes, including 10 each his sophomore and junior years.
Adding a player like Davis at this point in the draft gives the Falcons a flexible option in the secondary at either a corner spot or as a nickelback.
