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

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Falcons were there to profit. Kamren Kinchens, the No. 34 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 3 slot. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Everything downstream of Jayden Daniels depends on Jayden Daniels, and the building knows it. They are betting Keegan proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In No. 17 they get the arm they will build around at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74 Rnd3 Tyler Guyton
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Tyler Guyton in the 74th pick, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
They will replay Kamren Kinchens at pick 96 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick109 Rnd4 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in slot 109 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick145 Rnd5 Austin Booker
They liked Austin Booker enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 145. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Nothing to complain about; Michael Barrett went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in Round 6, Pick 36 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick237 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 237th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick244 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones at pick No. 244 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
