Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Falcons bet the future on Sanders. The board says B.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Falcons committed. Shedeur Sanders is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Lovett value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick 11 they get their quarterback of the future. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Graham Barton
They took Graham Barton at par in pick No. 43, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Nothing to complain about; Chris Braswell went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 James Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, James Williams at slot 111. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick148 Rnd5 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker in the 148th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Korey Foreman
No drama and no debate, Korey Foreman went about where he belonged in the 189th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201 Rnd6 Dominic Lovett
Dominic Lovett at No. 201 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
