We knew there were some teams involved that were interested in him. There was a run on a lot of those ‘backers that were of his stature and his caliber, as far as fast guys that can cover a lot of ground. Again, back to the versatility thing, we just felt like instead of sitting on our hands once again, let’s deal a seventh-rounder for a guy that we wanted. We went after him, and we think he’s going to be a nice addition. He was marked as one of our most highly-rated special-teamers out there from the college ranks by our staff, by our special-teams staff with Keith Armstrong and such. We liked that addition as well." [B]Smith:[/B] "He will be an inside linebacker, playing inside. Again, with the different looks he’ll line up anywhere from head up on the center to line up on an offensive tackle. It will be dependent on how we're displacing our front in front of them. He will be a guy that will line up on the inside, won’t be an edge player. He will be a guy that has good speed and has good ability to rush the passer. I think if you saw some of the highlights that they put up on one of the shows today that you can see that he is a guy that can get up the field as well. That gives you a lot of flexibility in terms of what you want to do with your linebackers.” [url]http://espn.go.com/blog/atlanta-falcons/post/_/id/5430/dimitroff-smith-reflect-on-draft[/url] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=newssearch&cd=9&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CEIQqQIoADAI&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsujuiceonline.com%2F2014%2F05%2F11%2Fatlanta-falcons-draft-former-syracuse-lb-marquis-spruill%2F&ei=rapvU6vpIpGQuATFp4CAAw&usg=AFQjCNGfDYWfcTggerPkkAgVLIvqFMSUhA&bvm=bv.66330100,d.c2E'][U]Atlanta Falcons draft former [B]Syracuse[/B] LB Marquis Spruill[/U][/URL] [/QUOTE]
