Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB+
The Falcons finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Falcons' quarterback, full stop.

The Hall reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
No drama and no debate, Jayden Daniels went about where he belonged in slot 8. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
A clean, defensible pick in the 74th overall pick with a little surplus value in Blake Fisher. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick79 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at the 79th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick109 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
By-the-book stuff, Mekhi Wingo at No. 109 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
The board had cheaper options than Roger Rosengarten at pick No. 121, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
A straight-up fair deal on Dallin Holker at pick 143, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick197 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A wild overpay on Gabe Hall in Round 6, Pick 22, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
