Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
The Falcons kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Gabe Hall at No. 187 is 34 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

However the rest shakes out, Hadden at that price is a win they earned. The Falcons indulged a want in Sainristil while a need in running back, tight end and other spots stayed open. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at the 43rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in Round 3, Pick 10 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76 Rnd3 Max Melton
By-the-book stuff, Max Melton at pick 76 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick79 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Mike Sainristil adds a cornerback and leaves running back, tight end and other spots untouched.
Pick109 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
No drama and no debate, Mekhi Wingo went about where he belonged in pick No. 109. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick121 Rnd4 James Williams
They paid sticker price for James Williams in slot 121, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They reached a country mile for Jordan Travis at pick No. 143, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 147th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick187 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A big swing on Gabe Hall at pick 187, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
