Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Falcons a B.

The tape said wait; the Falcons did not. Drew Allar went at Round 4, Pick 22, a good 36 picks before the board was ready. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Branch falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick62 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez slipping to slot 62 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Nice patience on Zachariah Branch, who had no business lasting to pick No. 79. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
Fair-plus on Tacario Davis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick122 Rnd4 Drew Allar
A real head-scratcher, Drew Allar in No. 122 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
The board had cheaper options than Kaleb Elarms-Orr at Round 5, Pick 30, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost in the 189th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick195 Rnd6 Zane Durant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Zane Durant in slot 195. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jadon Canady
Jadon Canady at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick229 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
A conviction pick on Robert Spears-Jennings at the 229th pick that the board grades a round light. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick231 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
Aiden Fisher at the 231st overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
