The Giants drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B-. The Giants spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Gillotte value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels in the 5th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick37
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu in No. 37 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick54
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Good price on Chris Braswell in pick No. 54, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick69
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at the 69th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
They let Zak Zinter come to them and pounced at slot 105. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick142
Rnd5
Ray Davis
They did well to land Ray Davis in the Round 5 slot, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick183
Rnd6
Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte slipping to pick 183 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
