44. <p>Ogbah is an interesting combination of athleticism and power, and can be developed into a fully equipped defensive end for Atlanta to pressure the impressive collection of NFC South quarterbacks.</p> <p>There’s not much distance between the best defensive end in the draft and the fifth, and the Falcons would benefit from this year’s crop without having to give up future assets to grab a key player.</p> <p>The 2015 Falcons relied on a rotation of mostly ineffective defensive ends including Adrian Clayborn and Brooks Reed.  Emmanuel Ogbah is an immediate upgrade over what the Falcons currently possess, and can develop into the best defensive end the Falcons have seen in a long time.</p>. DE. Oklahoma State. Emmanuel Ogbah. 17. player
