Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons found their guy under center in Daniels: B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Falcons' quarterback, full stop.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reaching for Jones left real value on the table behind him. The Fautanu pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
They paid sticker price for Jayden Daniels in slot 8, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
They read the board right and Troy Fautanu was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 11. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Junior Colson
No drama and no debate, Junior Colson went about where he belonged in pick No. 74. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malik Washington
A premium they did not need to pay, Malik Washington a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
By-the-book stuff, Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 145th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Myles Jones in the 189th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick201 Rnd6 Sheridan Jones
They liked Sheridan Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick244 Rnd7 Mark Perry
Mark Perry at No. 244 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
