Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Falcons: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Falcons spent the 244th pick on Tosh Baker, a name most had 24 spots down the list. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Winston Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 15 they get an anchor for the defensive front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick46 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the 46th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick244 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
They talked themselves into Tosh Baker at pick No. 244, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
