Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The Falcons let All fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Erick All, pick No. 187, roughly 58 picks past where he belonged.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If Foster pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 19, where Laiatu Latu graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick52 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson is a better player than pick 52 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick74 Rnd3 Javon Baker
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Baker. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Good price on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 79th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A big swing on Javon Foster at Round 4, Pick 9, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at No. 143 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick187 Rnd6 Erick All
Somehow Erick All was still sitting there in the 187th pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick217 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
You do not let a wide receiver like Tahj Washington reach Round 6, Pick 42 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
