Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants answered their biggest question with Ward. Grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jeffrey Bassa slide, and the Giants were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 3. Highway robbery. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Omarion Hampton at No. 34. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in slot 65 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104 Rnd4 Deone Walker
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Deone Walker reach the 104th overall pick and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
Steal is underselling it; Deontae Lawson at the 134th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in pick No. 153, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
They barely believed it either: Jeffrey Bassa still on the board at Round 7, Pick 3. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jonas Sanker
A safety of that caliber at No. 245 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick256 Rnd7 Damien Martinez
Circle this one: Damien Martinez at pick 256 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
