If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Giants, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

The safety 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.

Bottom line, with Dallas Turner leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 14
By-the-book stuff, Dallas Turner at No. 12 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Ennis Rakestraw Jr. · CB · rank 35
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in Round 2, Pick 7 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Devontez Walker · WR · rank 48
No edge and no loss on Devontez Walker in the 47th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Mekhi Wingo · DT · rank 68
Mekhi Wingo in pick 70 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.7 · Pick 107 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 100
Blake Fisher at the 107th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.26 · Pick 162 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Fair-plus on Braelon Allen, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.10 · Pick 185 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 179
Nothing to complain about; Curtis Jacobs went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
