Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Falcons for Williams: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Isaiah Williams had no business being available in Round 7, Pick 27, and the Falcons did the only sane thing and turned in the card. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Justin Fields pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 10 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton is a better player than pick 74 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick188 Rnd6 Malachi Moore
Circle this one: Malachi Moore at the 188th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick204 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
No edge and no loss on Curtis Jacobs in the 204th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick231 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II at No. 231 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Williams reach pick No. 247 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
