Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Daniels is the plan now, and the Falcons grade out a B-.

The Falcons went off the board in a big way for Fabien Lovett, 146 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Wilson.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in slot 74 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick109 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
They barely believed it either: Roman Wilson still on the board at the 109th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
They reached a country mile for Gabe Hall at pick 145, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
They reached into another round for Fabien Lovett, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jontrey Hunter
Value said wait; Jontrey Hunter in the 201st pick says they were not listening. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick244 Rnd7 Charles Turner III
A big swing on Charles Turner III at No. 244, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
