Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B

More right than wrong for the Giants, and a B to prove it.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Giants started one anyway for Collin Oliver, 44 picks ahead of schedule. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Schwesinger pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Good price on Derrick Harmon in pick 34, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
No drama and no debate, Tate Ratledge went about where he belonged in slot 65. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Carson Schwesinger in the 99th pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jamaree Caldwell in the 105th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
They jumped the gun on Kyle Williams, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
A premium they did not need to pay, Carson Vinson a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at Round 7, Pick 30 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
