Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesD FutureA+
The Giants left with their quarterback, and a C+ to match.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jaxson Dart is the Giants' quarterback, full stop. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.

The Gillotte pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Carter value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In the Round 1 slot they get the face of the franchise, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in Round 2, Pick 2 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte in No. 57 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Alfred Collins in slot 65. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at pick 99 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in pick No. 105 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
They jumped the gun on Dorian Strong, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick219 Rnd7 Logan Parr
Logan Parr at the 219th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick246 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
A real head-scratcher, Gino Garcia in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
