Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureC
A passer of the future in Ewers, and a B, for the Giants.

The search is over. The Giants handed the keys to Quinn Ewers, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

However the rest shakes out, Wilson at that price is a win they earned. Felter has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Quinn Ewers
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in the 40th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea slipping to No. 71 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinshon Judkins. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107 Rnd4 Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith in pick 107 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
Good price on Tez Johnson in slot 166, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd7 Bryan Felter
They liked Bryan Felter enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 217. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Kamari Wilson
Taking Kamari Wilson in the 242nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
