Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB-
The Falcons won the night they stopped Kiser from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jack Kiser got past him. The Falcons do not have to explain a thing at slot 238.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 20 they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in pick 46 is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in slot 51 lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at the 117th pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Ricky White III
No drama and no debate, Ricky White III went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 15. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in pick No. 238 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
