Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureA-
The Falcons cashed the board's mistake on Coleman: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Keon Coleman at the 108th pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Every board in the league had Puni lower, and that gap is the story. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
They liked Braden Fiske enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 43. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick48 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
No drama and no debate, J.J. McCarthy went about where he belonged in slot 48. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick74 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kris Abrams-Draine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick79 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at the 79th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick108 Rnd4 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the 108th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at Round 5, Pick 6 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at No. 186 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick196 Rnd6 Tommy Eichenberg
The board fumbled Tommy Eichenberg all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
