Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Falcons won the night they stopped Monangai from sliding. Grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Falcons were there to profit. Kyle Monangai, the No. 197 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 257. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Gillotte has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The Earnest Brown IV pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In pick 15 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
A wild overpay on Ashton Gillotte in slot 76, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick117 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at Round 4, Pick 16 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick165 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in No. 165 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at the 170th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Karene Reid
They robbed the room for Karene Reid here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
Somehow Kyle Monangai was still sitting there in the 257th overall pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
