Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Falcons let Paul Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Chris Paul Jr., slot 242, roughly 127 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Belton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
No edge and no loss on Mykel Williams in the Round 1 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick55 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at Round 2, Pick 23 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A slide stopped in pick 86, with Andrew Mukuba worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick152 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at the 152nd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald in slot 159 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick197 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in the 197th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick242 Rnd7 Chris Paul Jr.
They barely believed it either: Chris Paul Jr. still on the board at No. 242. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
