Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons cashed the board's mistake on Harvey: B-.

When a board-topper like RJ Harvey slides to Round 7, Pick 26, you do not overthink it, and the Falcons did not. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Reaching for Alexander left real value on the table behind him.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart in pick 15 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
They paid a round early for Darius Alexander in No. 116, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 RJ Harvey
Circle this one: RJ Harvey at pick No. 242 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
