Larceny in No. 114 lands the Falcons a B, Lew and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Connor Lew tumbling to the Falcons in Round 4, Pick 14 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse slid further than he should have, and the 48th pick is lovely value for the cornerback. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick79 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
A clean, defensible pick in slot 79 with a little surplus value in Malachi Fields. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick114 Rnd4 Connor Lew
Connor Lew at No. 114 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Zane Durant
Steal is underselling it; Zane Durant at the 197th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick231 Rnd7 Raylen Wilson
A quiet steal in Round 7, Pick 15: Raylen Wilson for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
