Atlanta Falcons Football

It's one No. 1 down and one No. 1 to go for the Falcons, who agreed late July 27 in principle with Ohio State wide receiver Michael Jenkins, the latter of the club's two selections in the first round. The agreement with Jenkins, which will be finalized July 28, leaves only standout Virginia Tech cornerback DeAngelo Hall unsigned. Hall, the eighth choice in the draft, is not close to an agreement and will officially become a holdout when rookie head coach Jim Mora convenes his training camp July 28. "I'm never one that says you're close or far because truly you're about a 10-second phone call from being able to finalize any of these deals," Falcons president Rich McKay told The Associated Press of negotiations with Hall's agent, Joel Segal. "So hopefully this is the one. I'll do everything I can."
