The Giants cashed the board's mistake on Lemon: A. Thirty-one other rooms let Makai Lemon slide, and the Giants were the ones holding the card at the Round 3 slot. Highway robbery.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Giants clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Bottom line, with Sonny Styles leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Spencer Fano
They did well to land Spencer Fano in slot 14, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick24
Rnd1
Carnell Tate
In pick 24 they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Sonny Styles at the 26th pick is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick37
Rnd2
Kayden McDonald
They will replay Kayden McDonald at No. 37 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86
Rnd3
Keith Abney II
Taking Keith Abney II in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick91
Rnd3
Makai Lemon
Circle this one: Makai Lemon at pick No. 91 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92
Rnd3
Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at the 92nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick105
Rnd4
Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at Round 4, Pick 5 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick107
Rnd4
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at No. 107 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112
Rnd4
Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields in the 112th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115
Rnd4
Sam Hecht
You do not let an offensive lineman like Sam Hecht reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
