Sometimes a pick just feels right, and that’s what happened on Friday when the Atlanta Falcons selected Clemson cornerback Avieon Terrell. Not only did it meet a major need for the Falcons, not only was Avieon a steal at the spot he was taken — but the first hug he was able to give after hearing his name called was to his brother, and now teammate A.J. Terrell.
Avieon and A.J. Terrell celebrating as brothers and Falcons was so cool
Amazing moment.
Michael Turner announced the pick and called it a “for the bloodline,” and my goodness is it ever. There is a very real chance both Terrell brother play on the field at the same time, with Avieon being a versatile enough defensive back that he could work outside across from his brother, or inside with the slot.
This was one of the most heartwarming moments of the draft, and you know the family is absolutely overjoyed to have the whole family together. Nobody is celebrating harder tonight than the Terrells, and rightfully so.
