Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Falcons: B.

The Falcons clearly saw something nobody else did in Steven Parker, taking him 84 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Landing Ransom that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jihaad Campbell at the Round 2 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Circle this one: Harold Fannin Jr. at No. 58 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
They paid up for Azareye'h Thomas at the 89th pick when waiting would have done the job. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick116 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
A conviction pick on Darius Alexander at pick 116 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126 Rnd4 Carson Vinson
Value said wait; Carson Vinson in the 126th overall pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick165 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in pick 165 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick242 Rnd7 Steven Parker
This one needs a full-page explanation: Steven Parker in pick No. 242, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
