Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Falcons worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Falcons fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Walker pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Porter reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge at fair value.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at pick 46. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Darien Porter
They left a pile of value on the table to take Darien Porter this early at No. 54. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Value with a capital V on Jared Wilson in the 118th pick, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
They went early on Desmond Watson in pick No. 218, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Isaac TeSlaa at slot 242 is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
