Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC-
The Falcons fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The real work happened on the phones. The Falcons fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The Williams pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

That Foster pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at slot 43 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick49 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Nice patience on Ennis Rakestraw Jr., who had no business lasting to pick No. 49. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick64 Rnd2 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in the 64th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson slid further than he should have, and No. 86 is lovely value for the linebacker. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick109 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A premium they did not need to pay, Darius Robinson a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick112 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at the 112th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick132 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick145 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in slot 145 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A straight-up fair deal on Josh Proctor at pick No. 189, value and slot in agreement. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick201 Rnd6 AJ Barner
Quietly one of the better values of the day, AJ Barner at pick 201. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Zion Logue
They took Zion Logue at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
