Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Giants found their guy under center in Ward: B+.

The Giants did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Danny Stutsman fell into the Round 5 slot.

They will need Griffith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Everything downstream of Cam Ward depends on Cam Ward, and the building knows it. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In Round 1, Pick 2 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the 33rd overall pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick134 Rnd4 Chandler Rivers
This one needs a full-page explanation: Chandler Rivers in the 134th overall pick, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick153 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at the 153rd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick218 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached a country mile for Thor Griffith at Round 7, Pick 4, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245 Rnd7 Antonio Williams
Nice patience on Antonio Williams, who had no business lasting to No. 245. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
A wild overpay on Trey Wedig in slot 256, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
