Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Giants won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

The Giants did not so much draft Davin Vann as overpay for him, 59 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Ransaw pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

The Pat Surtain II pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick 3 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A real need, handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers in Round 3, Pick 1 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the 99th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Sai'vion Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Sai'vion Jones this early at No. 105. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
The board had Kurtis Rourke higher than the 154th overall pick, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd7 Davin Vann
They talked themselves into Davin Vann at pick No. 219, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw in slot 246 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
