Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Grand theft in the 105th pick: the Giants steal Ayomanor and grade out a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Elic Ayomanor, pick 105, roughly 37 picks past where he belonged. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The cost of the Buchanan reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In pick 3 they get a lockdown presence outside. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
A straight-up fair deal on Jaxson Dart at pick No. 37, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
A wild overpay on Jordan Burch in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick99 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in Round 3, Pick 35 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in No. 105 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Logan Brown in slot 154. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick219 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
They talked themselves into Teddye Buchanan at the 219th pick, and the board did not agree. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick246 Rnd7 John Williams
A big swing on John Williams at the 246th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
