Essex seems more athlete than skilled player. If he shows great athleticism in the Combine, I think the Falcons could target him as a project at LT. He doesn't look like he's quite ready to be a starter in the next 2-3 years, but since he's so raw, he might be perfect for Gibbs/Barone to mold him into their ideal guy.
