Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Giants bet the future on Ward. The board says A-.

When a board-topper like Jeffrey Bassa slides to pick 219, you do not overthink it, and the Giants did not. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.

So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The Kandra pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the 4th pick they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Nice patience on Omarion Hampton, who had no business lasting to pick No. 34. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Value said wait; Donovan Jackson in slot 65 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
They reached a country mile for Luke Kandra at the 77th pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at No. 104 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
Taking Deontae Lawson in pick No. 134 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick153 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A wild overpay on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in Round 5, Pick 16, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
They robbed the room for Jeffrey Bassa here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick245 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
They will replay Terrance Ferguson at the 245th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick256 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in pick 256 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
