Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
The Giants let Simon fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Cody Simon, the No. 136 name on the board, stolen at No. 221. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

Every board in the league had Shough lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 12th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
They jumped the gun on Benjamin Morrison, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Steal is underselling it; Jalon Walker at pick 44 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick65 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A real head-scratcher, Donovan Jackson in the 65th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in Round 3, Pick 12 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Circle this one: Deone Walker at pick No. 104 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick134 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
A tight end of that caliber at slot 134 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick145 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
They reached a country mile for Quincy Riley at Round 5, Pick 8, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 150th overall pick 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.
Pick155 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Somehow Luke Kandra was still sitting there in slot 155, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in pick No. 221 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick248 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
