Bleacher ReportAtlanta Falcons 2023 Draft Grade
Grade: B
- Round 1 (No. 8): Bijan Robinson, RB, Texas
- Round 2 (No. 38): Matthew Bergeron, OL, Syracuse
- Round 3 (No. 75): Zach Harrison, DL, Ohio State
- Round 4 (No. 113): Clark Phillips III, CB, Utah
- Round 7 (No. 224): DeMarcco Hellams, S, Alabama
- Round 7 (No. 225): Jovaughn Gwyn, IOL, South Carolina
Did the Atlanta Falcons need to add Bijan Robinson to their third-ranked rushing attack? Probably not, but Robinson is more than a typical running back.
The fourth-ranked prospect on the B/R big board is an elite dual-threat tailback who will open up a host of options for the Falcons offense. With Tyler Allgeier, Cordarrelle Patterson, Drake London, Kyle Pitts, Mack Hollins and Scotty Miller at his disposal, second-year quarterback Desmond Ridder will have every chance to succeed in 2023.
The Falcons traded up on Day 2, grabbing Syracuse offensive lineman Matthew Bergeron with the 38th pick to further help support Ridder. Atlanta gave up the 110th pick to move from No. 44 to No. 38.
Atlanta next turned its attention to a defense that ranked 27th overall last season. Defensive lineman Zach Harrison, cornerback Clark Phillips III and safety DeMarcco Hellams will have good opportunities not only to stick with the 53-man roster but see early playing time.
Phillips, the 25th-ranked prospect on the B/R board, was a particularly valuable addition on Day 3.
Robinson was a pure luxury pick, which brings down the Falcons' grade a bit. However, if the Falcons' plan is to have an explosive offense while getting better on defense and seeing if Ridder can be the long-term answer at quarterback, they had a sound draft.
I'm excited about our new additions.Jamaaliver wrote:Bleacher ReportAtlanta Falcons 2023 Draft Grade

If the Falcons go defense in the 1st round, I would love to pick up DTR in the 4th round if he is still available. Dorian Thompson-Robinson reminds me of Tony Romo.
