Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD- FutureA
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Falcons to a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Falcons started one anyway for Nick Barrett, 30 picks ahead of schedule. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Smith pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick116 Rnd4 Genesis Smith
You do not let a safety like Genesis Smith reach No. 116 and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
A slide stopped in the Round 4 slot, with Jalon Kilgore worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick195 Rnd6 Ted Hurst
They will replay Ted Hurst at the 195th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick229 Rnd7 Nick Barrett
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nick Barrett well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jimmy Rolder
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jimmy Rolder at Round 7, Pick 15. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Riley Nowakowski
Riley Nowakowski at the 255th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It fills a real need, too.
