Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedB-

FutureB-
The Falcons did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named offensive lineman, a need the Falcons walked right past. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
If Thomas pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
They paid sticker price for James Pearce Jr. in pick No. 15, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick46
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
They jumped the gun on Azareye'h Thomas, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A minor itch, scratched.
