Draft Grade — Giants
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Beck is the plan now, and the Giants grade out a D.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Quinn Ewers, Round 5, Pick 6, roughly 125 picks past where he belonged.

Everything downstream of Carson Beck depends on Carson Beck, and the building knows it. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Smith proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Carson Beck
In pick No. 6 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick7 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 7 they get a ballhawk on the outside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They barely believed it either: Luther Burden III still on the board at No. 38. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick70 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
The board fumbled Xavier Watts all the way to pick 70, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Blake Miller
They jumped the gun on Blake Miller, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at the Round 4 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd5 Quinn Ewers
A quarterback of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 6 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Nothing to complain about; Davison Igbinosun went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They took Jonah Monheim at par in slot 140, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick166 Rnd6 Billy Bowman Jr.
They paid sticker price for Billy Bowman Jr. in the 166th pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd6 Maxwell Hairston
A slide stopped in pick No. 172, with Maxwell Hairston worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173 Rnd6 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd7 Tim Smith
They liked Tim Smith enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 198. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Steve Linton
No edge and no loss on Steve Linton in the 219th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
