Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C+
ValueA NeedB TradesF FutureA+
Ward should have been long gone. The Giants pounced, and earned a C+.

Call it larceny. Cam Ward sat on the board until pick No. 221, and the Giants did not need to be asked twice.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In slot 14 they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
Steal is underselling it; Jahdae Barron at pick 34 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Walter Nolen
Circle this one: Walter Nolen at No. 104 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Armand Membou
Armand Membou in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick134 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at pick No. 134 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Tre Harris
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tre Harris in Round 5, Pick 16, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 Cam Ward
The board fumbled Cam Ward all the way to the 221st overall pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 248th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
