A franchise passer in Penix Jr. headlines a D weekend for the Giants. The Giants spent real capital to be 49 picks early on Caedan Wallace, and the board is going to hold them to it. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.
Whatever Michael Penix Jr. becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Smith. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Michael Penix Jr.
In pick No. 20 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick21
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 21st pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick22
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 22 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick32
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cooper DeJean in Round 1, Pick 32. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick33
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick34
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in the 34th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in pick 70 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick82
Rnd3
Renardo Green
A tidy little value on Renardo Green in the 82nd pick, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84
Rnd3
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at slot 84 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85
Rnd3
Max Melton
Max Melton in Round 3, Pick 22 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick93
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
They paid a round early for Cole Bishop in the Round 3 slot, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94
Rnd3
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine is a better player than the 94th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. slid further than he should have, and pick No. 95 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107
Rnd4
Blake Corum
Blake Corum at No. 107 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Theo Johnson a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick134
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
They did well to land Isaac Guerendo in slot 134, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick141
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
A straight-up fair deal on Anthony Gould at pick 141, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158
Rnd5
AJ Barner
A conviction pick on AJ Barner at pick No. 158 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick164
Rnd5
Caedan Wallace
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Caedan Wallace. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick178
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
A quiet steal in the Round 6 slot: Kamal Hadden for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick179
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
Fabien Lovett in Round 6, Pick 4 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick181
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
They paid sticker price for Ty'Ron Hopper in the 181st overall pick, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick183
Rnd6
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at No. 183 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick184
Rnd6
Erick All
A big swing on Erick All at the 184th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick187
Rnd6
Trente Jones
No edge and no loss on Trente Jones in pick No. 187; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick192
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at Round 6, Pick 17 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick197
Rnd6
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith in the 197th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick201
Rnd6
KT Leveston
KT Leveston at slot 201 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205
Rnd6
Trey Knox
A real head-scratcher, Trey Knox in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick208
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
A reach for Gabe Hall in pick 208; a little patience would have been rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
Nice patience on Justin Rogers, who had no business lasting to pick 209. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick213
Rnd6
M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire in No. 213 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick214
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
They barely believed it either: Javion Cohen still on the board at the 214th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
They will replay Cornelius Johnson at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
