Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueC NeedC+ TradesA- FutureB-
Chambliss is the Falcons' new face under center. Grade: B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Trinidad Chambliss is the Falcons' quarterback, full stop. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Wilson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

The Falcons indulged a want in Alexander while a need in interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots stayed open.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Trinidad Chambliss
A big swing on Trinidad Chambliss at the 10th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick42 Rnd2 Lance Heard
They paid a round early for Lance Heard in the 42nd pick, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kade Pieper
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Kade Pieper in slot 60, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick72 Rnd3 Deuce Alexander
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 72 on Deuce Alexander with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots unsolved.
Pick109 Rnd4 Raylen Wilson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Raylen Wilson at linebacker with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots open.
Pick111 Rnd4 Nyck Harbor
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 111 on Nyck Harbor, a wide receiver they were not short of.
Pick218 Rnd6 Drew Bobo
Drew Bobo at pick 218 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick221 Rnd6 Khalil Barnes
The board had cheaper options than Khalil Barnes at Round 6, Pick 42, and it noticed. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick229 Rnd7 Coleton Price
Coleton Price at slot 229 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Xavier Chaplin
Xavier Chaplin in No. 231 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
