Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
The Giants won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Giants, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Nelson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mayes.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy in pick 37 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
By-the-book stuff, Kamren Kinchens at No. 66 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at Round 3, Pick 5 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
No edge and no loss on Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 85; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105 Rnd4 Audric Estime
They paid sticker price for Audric Estime in the 105th pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick142 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in pick No. 142 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick183 Rnd6 BJ Mayes
Nice patience on BJ Mayes, who had no business lasting to the 183rd overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Whittington
A quiet steal in the Round 6 slot: Jordan Whittington for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick218 Rnd6 Storm Duck
Storm Duck in the 218th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kaimon Rucker
They reached into another round for Kaimon Rucker, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226 Rnd7 Zion Nelson
Zion Nelson at the 226th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
