Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants drew a line under the quarterback search with Sanders: C+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Giants took Ja'Corey Brooks at Round 4, Pick 3, roughly 140 spots before his name belonged. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The whole projection now runs through Shedeur Sanders; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 3rd overall pick they get the face of the franchise, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
A reach for JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 34; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick65 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in slot 65 is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99 Rnd3 Trevor Etienne
Value said wait; Trevor Etienne in No. 99 says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Ja'Corey Brooks
A real head-scratcher, Ja'Corey Brooks in the 105th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
They went early on Barryn Sorrell in pick 154, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd7 Kobe Hudson
They paid sticker price for Kobe Hudson in the 219th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They let Jermari Harris come to them and pounced at No. 246. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
