Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Ward is the Giants' new face under center. Grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Ryan Fitzgerald at the Round 7 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Everything downstream of Cam Ward depends on Cam Ward, and the building knows it. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
By-the-book stuff, Cam Ward at the 3rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick34 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in Round 2, Pick 2 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
The board fumbled Tyler Booker all the way to the 65th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at Round 4, Pick 3. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick134 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
Taking Aeneas Peebles in the Round 4 slot is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick155 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
They will replay Quinshon Judkins at slot 155 for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick221 Rnd7 Dorian Strong
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 221 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at the 248th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
