The search is over. The Giants handed the keys to Jayden Daniels, and the whole operation now runs on his development. The bottom line is a respectable B.
The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Rakestraw Jr..
They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 6th pick they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
A tidy bit of business in the 47th overall pick, where Ennis Rakestraw Jr. graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Malachi Corley at the Round 3 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
DeWayne Carter at slot 107 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Nothing to complain about; Beau Brade went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Cody Schrader is a better player than pick No. 183 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
