Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall C
ValueC- NeedC+ TradesC- FutureC-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Falcons: C.

The Falcons clearly saw something nobody else did in Javon Bullard, taking him 23 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C in the wash.

The offensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Spending an early pick on safety with offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The Lovett pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in the 43rd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick74 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Tykee Smith adds a safety and leaves offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots untouched.
Pick244 Rnd7 Dominic Lovett
The board had Dominic Lovett higher than No. 244, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
