Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Milroe is the Giants' new face under center. Grade: C+.

There is reaching, and then there is Jalen Milroe at the 30th overall pick. The Giants jumped the board by 65 and dared it to prove them wrong.

Everything downstream of Jalen Milroe depends on Jalen Milroe, and the building knows it. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The dealing was even money, start to finish.

If Jalen Milroe and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 3rd pick they get a problem off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Jalen Milroe
In the Round 1 slot they get a passer to set the clock by, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
