Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
The Giants finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Giants were there to profit. Nicholas Singleton, the No. 106 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 246. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Everything downstream of Cam Ward depends on Cam Ward, and the building knows it. They are betting Horn Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick 3 they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Fair-plus on Kenneth Grant, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at Round 3, Pick 1 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at the 95th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick104 Rnd4 Xavier Watts
A safety of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd7 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in slot 219 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick246 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at No. 246 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. in the 256th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
