Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Falcons bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

There is reaching, and then there is Kyren Lacy at slot 232. The Falcons jumped the board by 59 and dared it to prove them wrong. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Monangai where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 15th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jihaad Campbell in the 45th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick 58 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick79 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Kevin Winston Jr. in pick No. 79 is miles ahead of his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick95 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
The board had Ozzy Trapilo higher than the Round 3 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
A slide stopped in slot 118, with Jordan Phillips worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
No edge and no loss on Luke Lachey in the 200th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
They jumped the gun on Desmond Watson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick232 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
They talked themselves into Kyren Lacy at the 232nd pick, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick236 Rnd7 Davin Vann
They reached a country mile for Davin Vann at pick 236, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick242 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
Taking Kyle Monangai in Round 7, Pick 26 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
