Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Ewers in the fold, and a B- for the Giants.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: J.J. Weaver in No. 198, a good 61 spots before the room expected him. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Whatever Quinn Ewers becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They banked enough surplus on Reed-Adams to cover a lot of smaller sins.

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.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Quinn Ewers
In pick No. 6 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Trevor Etienne
Value said wait; Trevor Etienne in Round 2, Pick 6 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Shavon Revel Jr.
A slide stopped in pick 70, with Shavon Revel Jr. worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick102 Rnd4 Keon Sabb
They paid sticker price for Keon Sabb in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd5 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
A wild overpay on Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the 134th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick139 Rnd5 Cade Klubnik
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cade Klubnik well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd6 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Ar'maj Reed-Adams in the 166th overall pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
They left a pile of value on the table to take J.J. Weaver this early at the Round 7 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd7 Moose Muhammad III
A real head-scratcher, Moose Muhammad III in Round 7, Pick 27 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
