Draft Grade — Giants
Overall
B-
ValueB+
NeedB
TradesC
FutureC+
The Giants drew a line under the quarterback search with Beck: B-. You could see the war room lean forward. Elic Ayomanor at pick No. 166 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
So much rides on Carson Beck that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
The Griffith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Carson Beck
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future at fair value.
Pick38
Rnd2
Isaiah Bond
A clean, defensible pick in the 38th pick with a little surplus value in Isaiah Bond. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick70
Rnd3
Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen at pick No. 70 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick102
Rnd4
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in pick 102 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103
Rnd4
Jonah Savaiinaea
They robbed the room for Jonah Savaiinaea here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104
Rnd4
Tyler Booker
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Tyler Booker in the 104th overall pick, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105
Rnd4
Xavier Watts
The board fumbled Xavier Watts all the way to Round 4, Pick 9, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106
Rnd4
Donovan Jackson
You do not let an offensive lineman like Donovan Jackson reach the 106th pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139
Rnd5
Kaimon Rucker
They will replay Kaimon Rucker at No. 139 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166
Rnd6
Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in slot 166 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick167
Rnd6
Deion Burks
Deion Burks at the 167th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168
Rnd6
Graham Mertz
Graham Mertz in No. 168 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169
Rnd6
Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at pick No. 169 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170
Rnd6
Gentry Williams
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 170 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171
Rnd6
Davin Vann
Davin Vann at the 171st overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172
Rnd6
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at slot 172 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
