Curtis Lofton doesn’t have great measureables but he is a fantastic football player who should make a big impact on the defense of the Falcons eventually.  He’s behind Keith Brooking on the depth chart so he might just get some table scraps as a rookie unless he plays a little bit on the outside.  Lofton stands at 6′0″, 240 pounds and he runs a 4.7 40 but he’s field fast.  He played in 38 games (18 starts) in his career at Oklahoma and he made 192 tackles, 17.5 tackles for a loss, had 1 sack, broke up 5 passes and intercepted 3 others.  Lofton will be a player that the Falcons can build their defense around in the future and he’s a good special teams player.  This was a good pick for the rebuilding Falcons.
