Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Giants fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Giants would have aced it. Cam Jackson at the 196th overall pick is 33 spots clear of where he belonged.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up. The Mondon Jr. pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with safety, edge rusher and other spots still on the board.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Shough.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
They did well to land Tetairoa McMillan in the Round 1 slot, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A straight-up fair deal on Jihaad Campbell at the 34th pick, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick49 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
They paid sticker price for Marcus Mbow in pick No. 49, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They took Quinshon Judkins at par in pick 65, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick99 Rnd3 Smael Mondon Jr.
They bypassed pressing needs at safety, edge rusher and other spots to take Smael Mondon Jr., a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick102 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in slot 102 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
A reach for Kyle McCord in No. 105; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Value with a capital V on Tyler Shough in pick 154, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick196 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
They reached into another round for Cam Jackson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
Robert Longerbeam at slot 219 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jacory Croskey-Merritt
Value said wait; Jacory Croskey-Merritt in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
