FutureA
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Giants a A-. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Giants, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.
The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Travis where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.
They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.
Bottom line, with Troy Franklin leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Troy Franklin
In slot 28 they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at pick No. 39 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick47
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
By-the-book stuff, Kris Jenkins at the 47th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick60
Rnd2
Josh Newton
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Newton. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
A straight-up fair deal on Brenden Rice at Round 3, Pick 6, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick107
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
A clean, defensible pick in the 107th overall pick with a little surplus value in Dominick Puni. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
Nice patience on Jordan Travis, who had no business lasting to pick 143. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
