You can hear the double-takes from here. The Falcons took Kaimon Rucker at the Round 4 slot, roughly 33 spots before his name belonged. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
