Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureC
Best value of the weekend goes to the Falcons for Amegadjie: C+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 146 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

The Eboigbe reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

If Laiatu Latu and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 9 they get a double-digit-sack hope. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Nice patience on Emeka Egbuka, who had no business lasting to the 41st pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick109 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A clean, defensible pick in the 109th overall pick with a little surplus value in Cam Hart. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at slot 146 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Malachi Moore
They will replay Malachi Moore at Round 6, Pick 12 for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jo'Quavious Marks
A tidy bit of business in No. 206, where Jo'Quavious Marks graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick230 Rnd7 Justin Eboigbe
A real head-scratcher, Justin Eboigbe in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Omar Speights
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 249 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
