Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall
C+
ValueC
NeedB-
TradesF
FutureA+
The Falcons got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C+. The tape said wait; the Falcons did not. Da'Shawn Womack went at slot 216, a good 94 picks before the board was ready.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.
The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
If Jermod McCoy and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Jermod McCoy
In the 8th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick39
Rnd2
Germie Bernard
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Germie Bernard. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick42
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
They liked Dillon Thieneman enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 42. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick73
Rnd3
A'Mauri Washington
No drama and no debate, A'Mauri Washington went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 9. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105
Rnd4
Tim Keenan III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tim Keenan III this early at pick No. 105. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick110
Rnd4
Monroe Freeling
A reach on Monroe Freeling in No. 110; the board had better options right there. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
Bryce Boettcher in the 174th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick216
Rnd7
Da'Shawn Womack
They reached into another round for Da'Shawn Womack, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jalen Thompson
A big swing on Jalen Thompson at No. 222, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick224
Rnd7
Kelby Collins
Kelby Collins in pick 224 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
