Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Maye is the plan now, and the Falcons grade out a B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Falcons spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Reaching for Kamara left real value on the table behind him.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is McConkey.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Drake Maye
Fair-plus on Drake Maye, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick43 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
A quiet steal in the 43rd overall pick: Ladd McConkey for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick74 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 74th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A conviction pick on Mohamed Kamara at pick No. 109 that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at No. 145 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
