FutureB-
The Falcons checked most of the boxes and earned a B. The Falcons put a flag in the ground for Trey Zuhn III, 53 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
The Bernard steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick70
Rnd3
Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II at No. 70 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick75
Rnd3
Dontay Corleone
Dontay Corleone in pick 75 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Germie Bernard
You do not let a wide receiver like Germie Bernard reach the 87th pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at Round 4, Pick 16 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122
Rnd4
DeMonte Capehart
By-the-book stuff, DeMonte Capehart at the 122nd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick137
Rnd4
Dametrious Crownover
No drama and no debate, Dametrious Crownover went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick151
Rnd5
Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A real head-scratcher, Kaleb Elarms-Orr in slot 151 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick153
Rnd5
Vincent Anthony Jr.
Vincent Anthony Jr. at pick 153 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick195
Rnd6
Trey Zuhn III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trey Zuhn III in No. 195, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
They left a pile of value on the table to take Bryce Foster this early at the Round 7 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231
Rnd7
Barion Brown
A wild overpay on Barion Brown in the 231st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick238
Rnd7
Adam Randall
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Adam Randall well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
