Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants cashed the board's mistake on Gordon II: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Ollie Gordon II at the 219th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Caldwell pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the safety spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In No. 3 they get a press-man option on the boundary. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
The board had Mykel Williams higher than pick 34, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in the 65th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ozzy Trapilo at slot 99. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
They talked themselves into Jamaree Caldwell at Round 4, Pick 3, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick154 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They read the board right and Tyler Shough was the payoff at the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick219 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at the 219th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A conviction pick on Teddye Buchanan at pick No. 246 that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
