Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall

FutureB-
The Falcons worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. The Falcons treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 41st overall pick on Sedrick Van Pran a full 51 spots early. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
The Egbuka pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
The Sainristil pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 19 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41
Rnd2
Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in pick 41 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick58
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
A wild overpay on Marshawn Kneeland in Round 2, Pick 26, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick74
Rnd3
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 74th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick95
Rnd3
Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick109
Rnd4
Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at pick No. 109 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 126th pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132
Rnd4
Mike Sainristil
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Mike Sainristil in the Round 4 slot leaves interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots for later.
Pick145
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
No drama and no debate, Jordan Travis went about where he belonged in slot 145. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick189
Rnd6
LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in No. 189 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205
Rnd6
Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau is a better player than pick No. 205 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248
Rnd7
Eric Gentry
The board had Eric Gentry higher than pick 248, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
