Nobody had Beaux Limmer this high, and it is not close. The Giants reached 40 spots to get him at No. 100.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
There is no soft landing here: they fought the board and left interior defensive lineman open, and the grade is the bill.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 16 they get a double-digit-sack hope. A clean fit for the roster.
In pick No. 17 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. A real need, handled.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Worthy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Edgerrin Cooper at No. 47 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Beaux Limmer in the 100th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Jordan Travis at Round 4, Pick 8 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
They talked themselves into Michael Barrett at No. 143, and the board did not agree. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
A straight-up fair deal on Josh Proctor at the 185th pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
