Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 74th overall pick lands the Falcons a B-, Nubin and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tyler Nubin got past him. The Falcons do not have to explain a thing at the 74th overall pick.

Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 8 they get juice off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in No. 43 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick74 Rnd3 Tyler Nubin
The board fumbled Tyler Nubin all the way to the 74th pick, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick79 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick109 Rnd4 Austin Booker
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Austin Booker in slot 109, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
