Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureA
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Giants and Smith: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Tykee Smith at the Round 5 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
They paid sticker price for Rome Odunze in the Round 1 slot, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick39 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They took J.J. McCarthy at par in Round 2, Pick 7, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss in the 47th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Graham Barton
You do not let an offensive lineman like Graham Barton reach No. 70 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick 108 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They barely believed it either: Tykee Smith still on the board at the 140th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick185 Rnd6 Javon Baker
Javon Baker at slot 185 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick226 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali in pick No. 226 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
