Larceny in the Round 4 slot lands the Giants a B-, Trapilo and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Ozzy Trapilo tumbling to the Giants in pick No. 134 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Reaching for Ewers left real value on the table behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

They left with safety solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a press-man option on the boundary. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron in pick 34 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick65 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at the 65th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
By-the-book stuff, Lathan Ransom at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Ozzy Trapilo in the 134th pick, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
They will replay Jeffrey Bassa at No. 155 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick221 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Taking Dont'e Thornton Jr. in slot 221 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick248 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at pick No. 248 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. The roster fit checks out.
