The Atlanta Falcons select JD Bertrand with the 143rd pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. After the injury to Troy Andersen last season, the Falcons reinforced the position with Bertrand.
A clear leader, he was a two-time captain at Notre Dame, he will be a fine linebacker to attack the line of scrimmage. Bertrand is a smart player who can have an immediate impact on the Falcons defense.
With a few holes on the roster, Bertrand could be a questionable decision, but the Falcons have made it clear that they are looking to retool their defense with this draft.
