30-year old Ovie Mughelli and 29-year old Dan Klecko bring the pain with their lead blocking.  Mughelli is 6’1″, 260 pounds and he’s like having an extra lineman in the backfield.  He played in 14 games (7 starts) for the Falcons last season and he carried the ball 4 times for 10 yards (2.5 ypc).  He also caught 7 passes for 51 yards (7.3 avg) with 1 TD  grab last year.  He has now played in 84 games (40 starts) in his NFL career and he has carried the ball 27 times for 83 yards (3.1 ypc) with 1 TD run.  Mughelli has also caught 45 passes for 339 yards (7.5 avg) with 3 TD grabs in his career.

Dan Klecko is even bigger than Mughelli at 5’11″, 275 pounds and he’s a former DT so you know he’s tough.  He did not play last season.  Klecko has played in 63 games (6 starts) offensively in his career and he has carried the ball 2 times for 5 yards (2.5 ypc).  He also has caught 10 passes for 56 yards (5.6 avg) with 1 TD grab in his career.
