Thirty-one other rooms let Benjamin Morrison slide, and the Giants were the ones holding the card at the 102nd overall pick. Highway robbery. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Taking Travis Hunter in pick 40 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Somehow Mason Graham was still sitting there in No. 47, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Circle this one: TreVeyon Henderson at slot 70 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Steal is underselling it; Benjamin Morrison at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
The board fumbled Deone Walker all the way to the 103rd pick, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Xavier Nwankpa at the 134th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Nothing to complain about; Gavin Bartholomew went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Andrew Mukuba at pick No. 166 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Grayson McCall in the 198th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Keaten Wade in Round 7, Pick 12 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 7 slot with a little surplus value in Marcus Harris. The roster fit checks out.
