Draft Grade — Falcons
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB+
Mendoza is the Falcons' new face under center. Grade: D.

The Falcons put a flag in the ground for Da'Shawn Womack, 44 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Fernando Mendoza is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Getting Price where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In No. 2 they get a long-term answer under center. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick16 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 16 they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick22 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 22nd overall pick they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
A tidy little value on Caleb Banks in the 33rd pick, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick44 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick48 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at pick 48 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jadarian Price
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jadarian Price in pick No. 79, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick86 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
The board fumbled Ja'Kobi Lane all the way to Round 3, Pick 22, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss at No. 103 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
They took Jalon Kilgore at par in the 114th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick175 Rnd5 Gracen Halton
They paid sticker price for Gracen Halton in slot 175, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick179 Rnd5 Isaiah Jatta
They reached into another round for Isaiah Jatta, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193 Rnd6 Kalil Alexander
They talked themselves into Kalil Alexander at the 193rd overall pick, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick207 Rnd6 De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling at pick 207 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Da'Shawn Womack
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Da'Shawn Womack. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218 Rnd7 Anthony Evans III
No drama and no debate, Anthony Evans III went about where he belonged in No. 218. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick231 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
Isaac Smith at the Round 7 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick242 Rnd7 London Humphreys
No edge and no loss on London Humphreys in Round 7, Pick 26; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
