Round Two and Three Reactions: Falcons Find Grant and Mayfield Plus SDSU S Tariq Thompson Interview

Aaron breaks down and reacts to the Atlanta Falcons' second and third-round selections of S Richie Grant (Central Florida) and OL Jalen Mayfield (Michigan) in the 2021 NFL Draft.

First, he discusses the team's signing of QB A.J. McCarron, and what it means for the backup quarterback competition we'll likely see later this summer. Then, he breaks down Grant and discusses why he has what it takes to be a high-level safety in Dean Pees' defense. Later, he discusses the concerns he has about Mayfield's ability to project as a guard at the next level. Then, he's joined by 2021 Draft prospect safety Tariq Thompson to discuss his preparation for the NFL and the Falcons' level of interest in him.
