Jaybeast17 DRAFTING FOR THEFalcons

Draft Grade — Falcons

The jury is out on the Falcons. For now, C+. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Falcons shredded theirs for Howard Cross III. He came off 112 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
They banked enough surplus on Rucker to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Princely Umanmielen
In the 15th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection.
Pick46
Rnd2
Landon Jackson
Landon Jackson at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick118
Rnd4
Howard Cross III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Howard Cross III this early at pick No. 118. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick218
Rnd7
Malachi Moore
A safety of that caliber at slot 218 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick242
Rnd7
Kaimon Rucker
Kaimon Rucker at No. 242 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
