Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Falcons let Simpson fall and pounced. Final grade: A-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jaylin Simpson, the No. 78 name on the board, stolen at the Round 4 slot.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Bralen Trice and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In the 30th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 JC Latham
JC Latham at the 40th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the Round 2 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick72 Rnd3 Adonai Mitchell
They took Adonai Mitchell at par in Round 3, Pick 8, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Howard Cross III
Good price on Howard Cross III in pick 84, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
Somehow Jaylin Simpson was still sitting there in pick No. 108, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick145 Rnd5 Ricky Pearsall
Steal is underselling it; Ricky Pearsall at slot 145 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick162 Rnd5 Fabien Lovett
A straight-up fair deal on Fabien Lovett at No. 162, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick167 Rnd5 Moose Muhammad III
They did well to land Moose Muhammad III in the 167th pick, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Nice patience on Gabe Hall, who had no business lasting to the Round 6 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tre Harris
Tre Harris is a better player than the 202nd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick229 Rnd7 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at slot 229 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick245 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on LaDarius Henderson. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
