Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a B for the Falcons.

Start where it matters. The Falcons took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The McGlothern pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Every board in the league had Holker lower, and that gap is the story.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at pick No. 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick48 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
They paid sticker price for Malachi Corley in slot 48, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick74 Rnd3 Austin Booker
A conviction pick on Austin Booker at No. 74 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Patrick Paul in pick 79. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
They paid up for Tyler Davis at the 108th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick142 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
A premium they did not need to pay, Dallin Holker a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick186 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A reach for Joe Milton III in Round 6, Pick 11; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick196 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They robbed the room for Dwight McGlothern here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
