The Falcons land in the muddy middle: C+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Falcons took Roc Taylor at pick 218, roughly 35 spots before his name belonged.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Hit on Aireontae Ersery and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In No. 15 they get a long-term starter on the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They liked Donovan Ezeiruaku enough to skip the value, taking him in the 46th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jacob Parrish. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick218 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
They talked themselves into Roc Taylor at pick No. 218, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick242 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in slot 242 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
