Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Falcons robbed the room for Keegan. Final grade: A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Trevor Keegan had no business being available in Round 6, Pick 22, and the Falcons did the only sane thing and turned in the card. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Falcons clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 19 they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They took T'Vondre Sweat at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74 Rnd3 Austin Booker
They paid sticker price for Austin Booker in the 74th overall pick, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick79 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Value with a capital V on Patrick Paul in Round 3, Pick 15, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick109 Rnd4 Brandon Dorlus
Brandon Dorlus at pick No. 109 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick143 Rnd5 Michael Pratt
Nothing to complain about; Michael Pratt went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
They robbed the room for Trevor Keegan here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
