ValueF NeedB TradesA- FutureC

Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C for the Falcons.

The Falcons did not so much draft Makari Paige as overpay for him, 196 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. It nets out a thoroughly average C.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Falcons clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

The trade work was a quiet net positive. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Hit on JT Tuimoloau and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick15 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau

In the 15th pick they get a premier pass rusher, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.

Pick118 Rnd4 Makari Paige

They reached a country mile for Makari Paige at Round 4, Pick 16, and the board is aghast. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.

Pick218 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan

A big swing on Teddye Buchanan at No. 218, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.

Pick242 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.

They talked themselves into Jimmy Horn Jr. at slot 242, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
