Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

For all the boxes ticked, the Falcons skipped the loudest one: offensive lineman is exactly as bare as it was. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Hobbs pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The Lane steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Keith Abney II
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Keith Abney II. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane at No. 79 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Caden Curry
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Caden Curry in the 114th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
A conviction pick on Daevin Hobbs at pick 195 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jaylon Braxton
They took Jaylon Braxton at par in pick No. 231, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
