Draft Grade — Giants

Grand theft in No. 110: the Giants steal Bernard and grade out a B.

When a board-topper like Germie Bernard slides to the Round 4 slot, you do not overthink it, and the Giants did not. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Safety is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
They took Spencer Fano at par in pick No. 9, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at slot 40 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Germie Bernard
They will replay Germie Bernard at Round 4, Pick 10 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Austin Romaine
Nice patience on Austin Romaine, who had no business lasting to the 150th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Value with a capital V on Jermaine Mathews Jr. in pick 184, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Bud Clark
They paid sticker price for Bud Clark in the 188th pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Duce Robinson
Somehow Duce Robinson was still sitting there in No. 192, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
