He's on the bubble and probably could be had via trade at a very low price...

Obviously, I'm for drafting a good player in the draft that is younger and has less question marks. But if the Falcons are in a situation where they can address other positions in the 3rd/4th rounds and giving up a 7th round conditional pick for Slaton, is that a good move?

If you could get him for a 5th rounder or lower, I say why not. Maybe a 4th.

No, too many red flags. He was the Pope of Chili-town his rookie season...then something happened. Injury, attitude...both? His play and touches have declined dramatically......soemthing just isn't right there.

Durability and fumbling are his two major issues, and major being the key word. I'd pass and find a gem later in the draft.
