Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Nobody dealt better than the Falcons this weekend: A-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Falcons started one anyway for Spencer Rattler, 38 picks ahead of schedule. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The Colson steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the 24th overall pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. Need was not the driver here.
Pick43 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
They read the board right and Adonai Mitchell was the payoff at pick No. 43. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick74 Rnd3 Junior Colson
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 74 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Spencer Rattler. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
A tidy bit of business in slot 109, where Jalen McMillan graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick143 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
They let Roger Rosengarten come to them and pounced at the 143rd pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the 187th overall pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
A reach for Jaylan Ford in the 197th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
