...... DRAFTING FOR THEGiants

Draft Grade — Giants
Overall

FutureA+
The Giants drew a line under the quarterback search with Dart: B+. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Giants spent the Round 6 slot on Kyren Lacy, a name most had 82 spots down the list. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.
The whole projection now runs through Jaxson Dart; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They banked enough surplus on Henderson to cover a lot of smaller sins.
The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Armand Membou
Nothing to complain about; Armand Membou went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick31
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In slot 31 they get the arm they will build around, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in pick 34, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick49
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in the 49th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins is a better player than pick No. 65 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick97
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
They will replay TreVeyon Henderson at the 97th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick101
Rnd3
Gunnar Helm
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Gunnar Helm in pick No. 101. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105
Rnd4
Denzel Burke
They paid up for Denzel Burke at the 105th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117
Rnd4
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151
Rnd5
Tyler Baron
No drama and no debate, Tyler Baron went about where he belonged in slot 151. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
Value with a capital V on Tyler Shough in Round 5, Pick 16, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick189
Rnd6
DJ Giddens
They barely believed it either: DJ Giddens still on the board at pick 189. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick206
Rnd6
Kyren Lacy
A big swing on Kyren Lacy at No. 206, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219
Rnd7
Elijhah Badger
Value said wait; Elijhah Badger in the 219th pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the 226th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick232
Rnd7
Caleb Ransaw
Circle this one: Caleb Ransaw at No. 232 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick242
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jalen Travis. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246
Rnd7
Jermari Harris
A cornerback of that caliber at the 246th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257
Rnd7
Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at pick 257 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
