The Milton III reach set a tone the Falcons could not shake: F. The rest of the league had time to spare on Joe Milton III; the Falcons did not wait, grabbing him 100 spots ahead at the Round 3 slot. A F, plain and simple.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Landing Robinson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Brock Bowers
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a red-zone target to build around at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick8
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 8 they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 27 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson slid further than he should have, and the 36th pick is lovely value for the edge rusher. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick40
Rnd2
Javon Bullard
A straight-up fair deal on Javon Bullard at the 40th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick43
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Roman Wilson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick67
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 67th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick74
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick78
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
They paid sticker price for Michael Hall Jr. in slot 78, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick79
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at pick 79 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100
Rnd3
Joe Milton III
A big swing on Joe Milton III at No. 100, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104
Rnd4
Will Shipley
Will Shipley at the 104th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
They took Mekhi Wingo at par in Round 4, Pick 9, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick143
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
Value with a capital V on Roger Rosengarten in pick No. 143, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187
Rnd6
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at pick 187 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick197
Rnd6
Tanner McLachlan
They liked Tanner McLachlan enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 197. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
