Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall D-
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Falcons this weekend: D-.

The Ricky White III pick is the one that will follow the Falcons into the fall. They took him 48 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Put together, it is a D-.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The offensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and offensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In pick 28 they get a disruptor off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A big swing on Darien Porter at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick60 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They went early on Deone Walker in No. 60, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Kevin Winston Jr. at Round 3, Pick 22, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ricky White III
They reached a country mile for Ricky White III at pick No. 136, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jackson Hawes
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jackson Hawes in the 171st pick, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick242 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
