New York Giants

Few false notes in the Giants' weekend. Grade: A-.

The Giants bet big and early on Adam Randall, 84 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

However the rest shakes out, Lew at that price is a win they earned. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Chris Brazzell II · WR · rank 29
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Anthony Hill Jr. · LB · rank 38
They paid sticker price for Anthony Hill Jr. in No. 37, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Gennings Dunker · OG · rank 51
Good price on Gennings Dunker in pick No. 55, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Zachariah Branch · WR · rank 65
Zachariah Branch in the 89th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Daylen Everette · CB · rank 83
Daylen Everette at the 105th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.23 · Pick 123 · Connor Lew · C · rank 84
Circle this one: Connor Lew at slot 123 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.29 · Pick 129 · Jack Endries · TE · rank 122
Nothing to complain about; Jack Endries went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.5 · Pick 145 · Beau Stephens · OG · rank 160
A premium they did not need to pay, Beau Stephens a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R6.5 · Pick 186 · Aamil Wagner · OT · rank 176
They let Aamil Wagner come to them and pounced at Round 6, Pick 5. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.11 · Pick 192 · Adam Randall · RB · rank 276
A wild overpay on Adam Randall in slot 192, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
R6.12 · Pick 193 · Keagen Trost · OT · rank 186
Keagen Trost in the Round 6 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
