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

The Giants clearly saw something nobody else did in Tyler Shough, taking him 180 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The whole projection now runs through Cam Ward; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The Styles steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the 3rd pick they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They read the board right and Kenneth Grant was the payoff at pick 34. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick65 Rnd3 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at the 65th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick103 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at slot 103 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick134 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
A big swing on Anthony Belton at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
You do not let a safety like Sonny Styles reach No. 153 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jaishawn Barham
A slide stopped in the 219th pick, with Jaishawn Barham worth more than the price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick246 Rnd7 Tyler Shough
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Shough this early at slot 246. A need, and now a little less of one.
