Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Giants fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-.

The Giants went off the board in a big way for Zakhari Franklin, 44 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. Spending an early pick on defensive back with safety, cornerback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at slot 57 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
They zigged when the board said zag, taking T.J. Tampa at defensive back with safety, cornerback and other spots open.
Pick67 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in the 67th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick69 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick74 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
A curious use of No. 74. Safety, cornerback and other spots needed the pick; a defensive back in Kris Abrams-Draine did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
The board had cheaper options than Cooper Beebe at the 83rd overall pick, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at slot 104 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Zach Frazier
By-the-book stuff, Zach Frazier at the 125th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at No. 139 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141 Rnd5 KJ Jefferson
KJ Jefferson at Round 5, Pick 5 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in pick 143 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick157 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
No drama and no debate, Ainias Smith went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick160 Rnd5 Byron Murphy II
A straight-up fair deal on Byron Murphy II at pick No. 160, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick168 Rnd5 Bru McCoy
Bru McCoy in the 168th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tre Harris
They took Tre Harris at par in the 179th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jestin Jacobs
A clean, defensible pick in pick 187 with a little surplus value in Jestin Jacobs. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jalen Catalon
They paid sticker price for Jalen Catalon in the 196th pick, and that is fine. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
A reach for Dwight McGlothern in Round 6, Pick 24; a little patience would have been rewarded. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick220 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
They paid a round early for LaDarius Henderson in the Round 6 slot, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
Zakhari Franklin in No. 224 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
No edge and no loss on J.J. Weaver in slot 246; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
