The Giants answered their biggest question with Ewers. Grade: A-. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dillon Gabriel got past him. The Giants do not have to explain a thing at No. 210.
The whole projection now runs through Quinn Ewers; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at Round 1, Pick 29 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick32
Rnd1
Emeka Egbuka
In pick 32 they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33
Rnd2
Tacario Davis
Nice patience on Tacario Davis, who had no business lasting to slot 33. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the 58th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick70
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
The board had Tate Ratledge higher than pick No. 70, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76
Rnd3
Ajani Cornelius
Value with a capital V on Ajani Cornelius in the 76th pick, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77
Rnd3
Jaxson Dart
Good price on Jaxson Dart in pick 77, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick85
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson slipping to No. 85 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94
Rnd3
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at Round 3, Pick 30 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96
Rnd3
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Jamon Dumas-Johnson at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick102
Rnd4
Shilo Sanders
They will replay Shilo Sanders at the 102nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110
Rnd4
Oscar Delp
The board fumbled Oscar Delp all the way to No. 110, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick116
Rnd4
Josh Simmons
They barely believed it either: Josh Simmons still on the board at pick No. 116. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123
Rnd4
Blake Miller
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Blake Miller in the 123rd pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124
Rnd4
DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens slid further than he should have, and the Round 4 slot is lovely value for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jay Higgins
You do not let a linebacker like Jay Higgins reach pick 125 and blink. They did not. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jake Briningstool
They robbed the room for Jake Briningstool here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick134
Rnd5
Brennan Presley
Circle this one: Brennan Presley at slot 134 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139
Rnd5
Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander in the 139th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick157
Rnd5
Nic Anderson
Nic Anderson in slot 157 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158
Rnd5
Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at pick 158 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166
Rnd6
Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at Round 6, Pick 6 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick190
Rnd6
Fentrell Cypress II
By-the-book stuff, Fentrell Cypress II at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198
Rnd7
Josaiah Stewart
A tidy little value on Josaiah Stewart in pick No. 198, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick210
Rnd7
Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel at the 210th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219
Rnd7
Khordae Sydnor
No drama and no debate, Khordae Sydnor went about where he belonged in No. 219. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220
Rnd7
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland is a better player than the 220th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
