Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureA+
The Giants cleaned up, and the board agrees: A-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Giants spent No. 246 on Jacory Croskey-Merritt, a name most had 32 spots down the list. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Nolen pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Kamari Lassiter gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen slid further than he should have, and slot 34 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick58 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jackson in pick 58; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at the 65th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Fair-plus on Jalen Milroe, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Smael Mondon Jr. at No. 105, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick154 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
They went early on Barryn Sorrell in Round 5, Pick 16, and the value did not follow. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
A reach for Cam Jackson in the Round 7 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jacory Croskey-Merritt
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jacory Croskey-Merritt. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
