Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
Sanders is the plan now, and the Giants grade out a C.

The search is over. The Giants handed the keys to Shedeur Sanders, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

Reaching for Burks left real value on the table behind him. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

Getting Ransom where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick No. 3 they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen at Round 2, Pick 2 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in slot 77 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Steal is underselling it; Lathan Ransom at pick 134 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jabbar Muhammad
Jabbar Muhammad at the 138th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick155 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in the 155th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick221 Rnd7 Deion Burks
They reached a country mile for Deion Burks at No. 221, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. is a better player than pick 223 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jake Briningstool at the Round 7 slot is the proof. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
