Draft Grade — Giants
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Giants answered their biggest question with Sanders. Grade: D-.

The Clay Webb selection is the head-turner. The Giants reached 32 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

So much rides on Shedeur Sanders that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

On value alone, White makes the weekend a net positive.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick No. 6 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tate Ratledge in the 38th pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick39 Rnd2 Clay Webb
Clay Webb in the 39th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick70 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
They let Sebastian Castro come to them and pounced at slot 70. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey slipping to pick 71 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Quincy Riley
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Quincy Riley in No. 102. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick134 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
A tidy bit of business in slot 134, where Nicholas Singleton graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick139 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in Round 5, Pick 11 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick166 Rnd6 Ricky White
The board fumbled Ricky White all the way to pick No. 166, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick198 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
No drama and no debate, Jalen Travis went about where he belonged in No. 198. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick219 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Theo Wease Jr. at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
