Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC FutureC+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Giants: B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice interior defensive lineman is still a hole. The Giants never got to the one that mattered most.

The Campbell reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 5th pick they get a ballhawk on the back end. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
They went early on D'Angelo Ponds in the 40th overall pick, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane in pick No. 74 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
A reach for Jaishawn Barham in pick 105; a little patience would have been rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick143 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They reached into another round for DJ Campbell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A conviction pick on Trey Zuhn III at slot 184 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190 Rnd6 DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey at No. 190 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick191 Rnd6 Josh Cuevas
Josh Cuevas at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
