Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons let Milum fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Wyatt Milum, the No. 13 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Travis Hunter at the 15th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Steal is underselling it; Jack Sawyer at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in pick No. 116 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick242 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
They will replay Wyatt Milum at Round 7, Pick 26 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
