Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Falcons lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

The Falcons did not so much draft Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson as overpay for him, 107 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Put together, it is a D-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Mondon Jr.. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick No. 16 they get a bendy edge with upside, even if it was a touch early.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A slide stopped in Round 3, Pick 30, with Darien Porter worth more than the price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick102 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
Somehow Gunnar Helm was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick116 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
Circle this one: Aeneas Peebles at No. 116 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick151 Rnd5 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in Round 5, Pick 26 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick242 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at pick 242 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor itch, scratched.
