Before the Falcons trade of cornerback Chris Houston was officially consummated over the weekend, the two side revised the compensation.
The Falcons are now set to received a sixth round pick in 2010 and a conditional seventh round pick in 2011.
The Falcons were initially slated to move up 16 spots from 18 to second in the fifth round, but that part of the trade did not reach the final deal.

J-Man. Even up to the beginning of last season I ‘d have disagreed w/ you on TO but he knows he’s going into career twilight and doesn’t want to be remembered as going out w/ another type of Buffalo situation – the fact he even went to Buffalo was a surprise as to how far his stock had already dropped. He knows his old ‘ Me’tude ‘ doesn’t work anymore. I think he’d be worth at least a chat to to get a feel for where his heads at.
