Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Falcons: C+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Spencer Rattler in pick 43, a good 75 spots before the room expected him.

Lassiter at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will answer for taking cornerback early while offensive lineman, running back and other spots went begging.

A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick No. 8 they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Spencer Rattler
A big swing on Spencer Rattler at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Kamari Lassiter
They robbed the room for Kamari Lassiter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jaylin Simpson
A curious use of the 79th pick. Offensive lineman, running back and other spots needed the pick; a cornerback in Jaylin Simpson did not.
Pick109 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in pick 109 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick143 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They talked themselves into Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at slot 143, and the board did not agree. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Logan Lee well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick197 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
This one needs a full-page explanation: Solomon Byrd in the Round 6 slot, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
