Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Falcons: B-.

Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Falcons will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Hunter. The Wagner reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
They took Chris Johnson at par in No. 48, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick79 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
A slide stopped in the 79th overall pick, with Lee Hunter worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in the 114th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick145 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
They paid up for Aamil Wagner at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick195 Rnd6 Barion Brown
Barion Brown at pick 195 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
