Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Giants and Sainristil: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Mike Sainristil had no business being available in the 189th pick, and the Giants did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Gentry has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The DeJean pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, cornerback and other spots.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 37 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
They took Jermaine Burton at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick54 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A want over a need in No. 54: Cooper DeJean adds a defensive back while interior defensive lineman, cornerback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick69 Rnd3 Brian Thomas Jr.
They paid sticker price for Brian Thomas Jr. in slot 69, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Haynes at the 96th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Audric Estime
Audric Estime in the 105th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Graham Barton
A slide stopped in pick 115, with Graham Barton worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They reached into another round for Lathan Ransom, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Devontez Walker
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Devontez Walker at pick No. 165 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick183 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Circle this one: Frank Gore Jr. at No. 183 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Mike Sainristil
Taking Mike Sainristil in pick 189 is close to grand larceny; a defensive back that good had no business lasting this long. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick240 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at the 240th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor itch, scratched.
