Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Giants: B.

The Andrew Armstrong pick is the one that will follow the Giants into the fall. They took him 57 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a featured back. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan at the 34th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
Steal is underselling it; Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 65 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in pick 99 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Charles Grant
They read the board right and Charles Grant was the payoff at No. 105. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mitchell Evans in slot 154. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They jumped the gun on Isaac TeSlaa, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick246 Rnd7 Andrew Armstrong
Andrew Armstrong in the 246th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
