FutureB-
A passer of the future in Ward, and a B, for the Giants. The Giants spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 113 name on the board, in pick 218. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
Cam Ward gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 8 of 9, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.
Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Cam Ward
In No. 3 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value.
Pick33
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
A clean, defensible pick in the 33rd overall pick with a little surplus value in Kenneth Grant. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
No drama and no debate, Tyler Booker went about where he belonged in the 40th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick66
Rnd3
Colston Loveland
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Colston Loveland in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102
Rnd4
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in Round 4, Pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
The board fumbled Quinshon Judkins all the way to pick 134, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160
Rnd5
Dani Dennis-Sutton
The board had Dani Dennis-Sutton higher than pick No. 160, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick218
Rnd7
Smael Mondon Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 218 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
They will replay Jared Wilson at the 245th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256
Rnd7
Kamren Fabiculanan
Kamren Fabiculanan in No. 256 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
