Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesC FutureB
The Falcons let Fitzgerald fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Ryan Fitzgerald slide, and the Falcons were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 26. Highway robbery.

They will need Oladejo to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Strong pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a disruptor off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick46 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Value with a capital V on Derrick Harmon in the 46th pick, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick97 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke slid further than he should have, and pick 97 is lovely value for the cornerback. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick117 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
A surprising call. With offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 117 on Dorian Strong, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick140 Rnd5 Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo at No. 140 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
You do not let a specialist like Ryan Fitzgerald reach slot 244 and blink. They did not. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
