Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons won the night they stopped Wells Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Antwane Wells Jr., pick 244, roughly 53 picks past where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The back end got a real overhaul.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 15th overall pick they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer in slot 46 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick117 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
A safety of that caliber at the 117th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick244 Rnd7 Antwane Wells Jr.
Taking Antwane Wells Jr. in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
