Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA- FutureC
Grand theft in Round 4, Pick 15: the Falcons steal Carter and grade out a B.

When a board-topper like Barrett Carter slides to slot 116, you do not overthink it, and the Falcons did not.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick No. 15 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick61 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
No drama and no debate, Alfred Collins went about where he belonged in the 61st overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
They robbed the room for Barrett Carter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
