Draft Grade — Giants
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Larceny in pick 230 lands the Giants a D+, Smith and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Brashard Smith got past him. The Giants do not have to explain a thing at pick 230. Put together, it is a D+.

Every board in the league had Slater lower, and that gap is the story. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In pick No. 3 they get a ballhawk on the outside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They let Jalon Walker come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Taking Nick Emmanwori in No. 57 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 67th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick99 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Good price on Darius Alexander in the 99th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
A big swing on Jackson Slater at pick 105, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
They robbed the room for Dillon Gabriel here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in slot 219 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick230 Rnd7 Brashard Smith
The board fumbled Brashard Smith all the way to the Round 7 slot, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
A reach for Donovan Smith in the 246th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
