Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Larceny in the 234th overall pick lands the Falcons a B-, Rosemy-Jacksaint and all.

The Falcons spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, the No. 195 name on the board, in pick 234. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In slot 8 they get juice off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 DJ James
DJ James at No. 46 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick74 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ja'Lynn Polk. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Hall Jr. at pick 79, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick109 Rnd4 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They will replay Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at pick No. 109 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick143 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
They paid sticker price for Mason McCormick in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick187 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
The board fumbled Kamal Hadden all the way to the 187th overall pick, and they scooped it up. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick197 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 22: Ty'Ron Hopper for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick234 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Taking Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick No. 234 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
