Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Giants answered their biggest question with Maye. Grade: B.

Start where it matters. The Giants took Drake Maye to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The cost of the Duck reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Drake Maye
Drake Maye in Round 1, Pick 5 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at pick 37 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
They took Jack Sawyer at par in slot 61, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell is a better player than the 83rd pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
No edge and no loss on Brenden Rice in No. 89; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at pick No. 92 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Will Shipley
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Will Shipley. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick150 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ajani Cornelius well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Storm Duck
Storm Duck in the 183rd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick221 Rnd7 Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at Round 7, Pick 1 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
