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

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Falcons spent their marquee pick on Jayden Daniels, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

Getting Coleman where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

Spending an early pick on safety with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 9 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin in the 43rd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick74 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
The board fumbled Keon Coleman all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick79 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in pick No. 79 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick110 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the 110th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 James Williams
They zigged when the board said zag, taking James Williams at safety with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots open.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jacob Cowing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Myles Harden
Nice patience on Myles Harden, who had no business lasting to slot 199. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
