The Giants let Zvada fall into their laps, and walked away with a A. The board owed the Giants one, and it paid up: Dominic Zvada, the No. 95 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 232 like a gift left on the doorstep. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A.
Wedig has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Giants paired the rookies with proven help, Tyler Guyton leading the way.
The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Shavon Revel Jr.
In pick 22 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Luther Burden III at pick No. 35. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick44
Rnd2
Marcus Mbow
They went early on Marcus Mbow in Round 2, Pick 12, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick55
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at No. 65 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick76
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at the 76th pick is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
Taking Alfred Collins in slot 86 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick101
Rnd3
Will Howard
Will Howard in the 101st overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103
Rnd4
Azareye'h Thomas
Nothing to complain about; Azareye'h Thomas went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick115
Rnd4
Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in the 115th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick134
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
The board fumbled Luke Kandra all the way to No. 134, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick153
Rnd5
Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176
Rnd6
Quinshon Judkins
They will replay Quinshon Judkins at the 176th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179
Rnd6
Lathan Ransom
They barely believed it either: Lathan Ransom still on the board at pick 179. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187
Rnd6
Trey Wedig
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Wedig well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick218
Rnd7
Julian Fleming
Value said wait; Julian Fleming in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219
Rnd7
Tyler Batty
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Batty this early at pick 219. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
Steal is underselling it; Dominic Zvada at Round 7, Pick 16 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick246
Rnd7
James Burnip
Somehow James Burnip was still sitting there in No. 246, and they pounced on premier specialist value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
