Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Haulcy should have been long gone. The Giants pounced, and earned a A.

The rest of the league will want that one back. A.J. Haulcy tumbling to the Giants in the Round 3 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Little to argue with here, and the A says so.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In pick No. 31 they get a three-down second-level presence at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick37 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chris Johnson in slot 37. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
They robbed the room for A.J. Haulcy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at pick 95 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick105 Rnd4 Max Klare
You do not let a tight end like Max Klare reach the 105th pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick145 Rnd5 Chris McClellan
A tidy little value on Chris McClellan in the Round 5 slot, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick186 Rnd6 Reggie Virgil
They barely believed it either: Reggie Virgil still on the board at the 186th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick192 Rnd6 Matt Gulbin
Matt Gulbin is a better player than Round 6, Pick 11 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick193 Rnd6 Anez Cooper
Nothing to complain about; Anez Cooper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
