New York Giants

The Giants answered their biggest question with Ewers. Grade: C.

Future C-

The Giants spent the pick that matters most on Quinn Ewers, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The Brailsford reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

If Quinn Ewers and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.11 · Pick 11 · Quinn Ewers · QB · rank 12
Quinn Ewers at the 11th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Jabbar Muhammad · CB · rank 32
Jabbar Muhammad in pick No. 38 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R2.10 · Pick 42 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 31
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenneth Grant at pick 42. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Josh Conerly Jr. · OT · rank 53
Josh Conerly Jr. in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Kaimon Rucker · DL-EDGE · rank 62
A quiet steal in slot 70: Kaimon Rucker for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.6 · Pick 102 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 106
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Smael Mondon Jr.. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R4.11 · Pick 107 · Parker Brailsford · OL · rank 123
They paid up for Parker Brailsford at Round 4, Pick 11 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.6 · Pick 134 · Bear Alexander · DL · rank 128
A clean, defensible pick in No. 134 with a little surplus value in Bear Alexander. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.16 · Pick 144 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 141
Andrew Mukuba at the 144th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.10 · Pick 170 · Tahj Brooks · RB · rank 158
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tahj Brooks in Round 6, Pick 10. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R6.11 · Pick 171 · Jaishawn Barham · LB · rank 173
They took Jaishawn Barham at par in pick 171, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.6 · Pick 198 · Moose Muhammad III · WR · rank 189
They let Moose Muhammad III come to them and pounced at slot 198. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
