Overall B-

ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Falcons a B-.

Nobody had Nick Barrett this high, and it is not close. The Falcons reached 25 spots to get him at the Round 7 slot. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Getting Pregnon where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick48 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon

Emmanuel Pregnon slid further than he should have, and the 48th overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.

Pick79 Rnd3 Derrick Moore

Derrick Moore at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.

Pick114 Rnd4 Bryce Lance

By-the-book stuff, Bryce Lance at slot 114 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.

Pick195 Rnd6 Toriano Pride Jr.

Toriano Pride Jr. at pick 195 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.

Pick231 Rnd7 Nick Barrett

Value said wait; Nick Barrett in No. 231 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
