STM Take

Tier 8 (#86) Raiders to tier 6 (#45) Falcons one-year jump confirms the change-of-scenery as the catalyst. The Virginia Tech ACC 3rd-round origin plus the converted-safety profile plus five years of NFL development give him basic versatile veteran value. The 2026 question is whether Deablo holds tier 6 or better across a full second Falcons season or whether the 2025 finish was a one-year context spike.

Deablo came out of Virginia Tech as the Las Vegas Raiders' 3rd-round pick (80th overall) in 2021 as a converted safety. He spent four years in Las Vegas before signing with the Atlanta Falcons in 2025. His STTM career runs tier 6 (#46) rookie, tier 7 (#53) in 2022, tier 8 (#66) in 2023, tier 8 (#86) in 2024, and tier 6 (#45) bounce-back in 2025.

Strengths

  • Tier 6 (#45) Falcons bounce-back from tier 8 (#86) Raiders confirms the structural ceiling is reachable in the right team-fit.
  • Virginia Tech ACC pedigree plus the converted-safety profile gives him real positional flexibility.

Concerns

  • Career STTM range mostly tier 6-8 across the past five years confirms the structural ceiling is highly team-fit dependent.
  • Atlanta's broader defensive identity around the Walker-Pearce double-1st-round investment compresses the structural support around Deablo.

What to watch: Whether Deablo holds tier 6 or better across the full 2026 Falcons season, the threshold for confirming the 2025 breakout was structural.
