I lied, no more Juno, it's NFL DRAFT DAY!

Being a beleaguered Atlanta Falcons fan now for quite a few years, last year was undoubtedly the feather in the cap of suckiness that the organization has worn for so long. Your QB's a felon, Joey Harrington becomes your starter, you have a 46-year-old man kicking field goals for you, your first-year coach coach quits after only 13 games on the job, and your "veteran" players act out and completely fuck over any saving grace they could have possibly provided by "staying classy" (to borrow a term from Anchor Man) to teach the rookies how "professional" football players are expected to act.

Well, today all that changes. Arthur Blanc has gone through great pains this off-season to change the image of the entire franchise. Starting from the top, he completely cleaned house, retaining only a handful of players from last year's roster, ridding himself of the troublemakers (DeAngelo Hall, for one), and signing a new "QUALITY" GM and head coach, the latter of which also brings on an entirely new coaching staff.

So, it's a new day for the Falcons. With 11 picks in the draft as a whole, 4 of which are within the first 48 picks, they have a chance to start anew like no other team I've ever seen. Who will the first pick be? Many are saying Glenn Dorsey from my favorite college team, the LSU Tigers, and I think I'd have to agree with that choice. Even though I think the need at the QB position may be greater than that on the defensive line, I think the number 3 pick in the draft should be spent on the best possible player available at that time, regardless if you need him or not. Granted, the best possible player at that time just might be RB Darren McFadden, but he has character issues that I think have to be factored in when talking about a player's quality. Dorsey seems like the safest bet to me, and packaging together two second round picks in order to make their way back into the late first round to pick up QB Brian Brohm is the way I'd like to see the Falcons go.

Either way, today is an exciting one for a Falcons fan.
