Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Giants would have aced it. Warren Brinson at Round 7, Pick 30 is 48 spots clear of where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Nolen value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick No. 3 they get a premier pass rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick65 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in Round 3, Pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at pick 99 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 105th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick154 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
A tidy bit of business in No. 154, where Trevor Etienne graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
They took Robert Longerbeam at par in Round 7, Pick 3, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick246 Rnd7 Warren Brinson
A real head-scratcher, Warren Brinson in pick No. 246 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
