Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Falcons: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Oronde Gadsden II in No. 97, a good 46 spots before the room expected him. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They banked enough surplus on Huzzie to cover a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 24 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tre Harris
A clean, defensible pick in slot 54 with a little surplus value in Tre Harris. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 23 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97 Rnd3 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 97th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris is a better player than pick 117 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick244 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie in the Round 7 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
