Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Domonique Orange got past him. The Giants do not have to explain a thing at the 111th overall pick. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Kitselman pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.5 · Pick 5 · Caleb Downs · S · rank 1
In slot 5 they get a two-high chess piece. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · CJ Allen · LB · rank 31
CJ Allen in pick No. 62 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Mike Washington Jr. · RB · rank 74
The board fumbled Mike Washington Jr. all the way to Round 4, Pick 5, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.8 · Pick 108 · Jalon Kilgore · CB · rank 100
Jalon Kilgore slipping to the 108th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R4.11 · Pick 111 · Domonique Orange · DT · rank 76
Steal is underselling it; Domonique Orange at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.5 · Pick 145 · Jaeden Roberts · OG · rank 149
A straight-up fair deal on Jaeden Roberts at the 145th pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.5 · Pick 186 · Taylen Green · QB · rank 186
By-the-book stuff, Taylen Green at No. 186 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.11 · Pick 192 · Miles Kitselman · TE · rank 223
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Miles Kitselman well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
