Draft Grade — Falcons

The Falcons drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B.

The search is over. The Falcons handed the keys to Jayden Daniels, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

However the rest shakes out, Braswell at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In No. 8 they get their guy under center for the next decade. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick74 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
They paid sticker price for Xavier Legette in Round 3, Pick 10, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Steal is underselling it; Chris Braswell at the 79th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Matt Goncalves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick142 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
No edge and no loss on Tommy Eichenberg in pick 142; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
You do not let a cornerback like Dwight McGlothern reach the 199th pick and blink. They did not. A minor need, but a need all the same.
