Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Falcons a B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Falcons reached some 30 spots for Xavier Truss, and value like that does not grow back.

The Johnson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In slot 15 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A quiet steal in pick No. 46: Jihaad Campbell for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss at the 242nd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
