After completing the draft without a fullback on their roster http://www.kansascitychiefsteamonline.com/patrick-mahomes-ii-jersey , the Atlanta Falcons have added two candidates who were undrafted college free agents.

Fullback was a priority position in the Falcons' search for college free agents because 2017 starter Derrick Coleman was not re-signed.

"After we talked about my role, I was pumped up," Herbstreit told AP. "I'm going to stay in my lane and let Mel and Louis and Trey kind of say, 'Hey, the Broncos really need to do this.' I'll kind of be more of breaking down some of the prospects from a college football perspective. Once they told me I was doing that and not projecting ... I'm not into that at all."
