Falcons find new No. 2 WR in ESPN's 7-round NFL mock draft

"Igbinosun is a toolsy corner who needs to limit his physicality levels in route stems," Reid explained. "He has starter-level upside if he's able to reduce his penalties."

As Reid pointed out, Igbinosun is a physical corner with decent size (6-foot-2, 200 pounds). Last season at Ohio State, he recorded two interceptions while improving as a run-stopper. The Falcons don't have a need for a Day 1 starter at cornerback, but they could certainly groom Igbinosun to eventually take over for Mike Hughes.

Falcons' final 3 picks in ESPN's mock draft

• Pick 122: DT Rayshaun Benny, Michigan:
• Pick 215: OT Alan Herron, Maryland
• Pick 231: LB Deontae Lawson, Alabama

As you can see, the Falcons filled their needs with the final three picks in Reid's mock draft. In Round 4, the team added Michigan defensive tackle Rayshaun Benny. The Wolverines standout is big enough to play nose tackle and can provide depth while competing for a role behind Maason Smith and Brandon Dorlus.

In the sixth round, the Falcons were projected to take Maryland offensive tackle Alan Herron, who played primarily at right tackle in college. He could be a developmental option to sit behind Jawaan Taylor in 2026. And finally, the team closed out Reid's mock with Alabama linebacker Deontae Lawson in Round 7.

Lawson is currently ranked No. 110 on Pro Football Focus' 2026 big board. "Lawson is undersized but experienced and quick. He projects as a rotational linebacker with some starting potential," PFF wrote in the Crimson Tide linebacker's scouting report.

The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, April 23. This year, the draft will be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
