Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureA
A passer of the future in Maye, and a B, for the Giants.

Start where it matters. The Giants took Drake Maye to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

They are betting Ford proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 6 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at pick No. 47 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
They paid up for Jalen McMillan at the Round 3 slot when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick107 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khyree Jackson. It fills a real need, too.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in Round 5, Pick 7 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
