Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Falcons: B-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Stefon Thompson at No. 189 is 57 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Landing Puni that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In the 8th overall pick they get a disruptive interior force, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A conviction pick on T'Vondre Sweat at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in pick 74 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
They read the board right and Dominick Puni was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 10. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They paid sticker price for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick No. 142, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick189 Rnd6 Stefon Thompson
A real head-scratcher, Stefon Thompson in the 189th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick201 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Value said wait; Myles Jones in Round 6, Pick 26 says they were not listening. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Whittington in the 241st pick, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
