Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedA- TradesB+ FutureD
The Falcons did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Everything else got attention, and offensive lineman got none. That is a strange way for the Falcons to leave a draft.

They are betting Elliss proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On value alone, Baker makes the weekend a net positive.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th overall pick they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at Round 2, Pick 16 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
A reach for Jonah Elliss in pick 74; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick108 Rnd4 Javon Baker
A quiet steal in pick No. 108: Javon Baker for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
