Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Ward in the fold, and a B- for the Giants.

The search is over. The Giants handed the keys to Cam Ward, and the whole operation now runs on his development. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Arroyo at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

Ratledge has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the 3rd overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They read the board right and Kenneth Grant was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A reach on Tate Ratledge in pick 65; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Somehow Andrew Mukuba was still sitting there in the 104th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 134 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in slot 155, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
