Former Falcons great Chuck Smith, who goes by “Dr. Pass Rush” these days, approved of the team drafting Auburn defensive end/tackle Marlon Davidson.
“Marlon is a good football player, he’s strong vs. the run and will develop into a productive pass rusher,” Smith wrote in a text. “This is a great pick for the Falcons.”
Smith, who finished his career with 58.5 sacks over nine seasons in the NFL, trains defensive linemen on the art of attacking and rushing the passer.
He shared his thoughts on the Falcons’ draft class on his YouTube channel.
