Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Giants committed. Shedeur Sanders is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They banked enough surplus on Ransom to cover a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Reaching for Burch left real value on the table behind him.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick 3 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at pick No. 34 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Burch in slot 65, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at the 104th pick is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
You do not let an offensive lineman like Anthony Belton reach Round 4, Pick 33 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick155 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the 155th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter in No. 221 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick248 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
No drama and no debate, Cody Lindenberg went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
