Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Giants robbed the room for Trotter. Final grade: B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Josiah Trotter, the No. 56 name on the board, stolen at the 86th overall pick.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will need Davis to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 9 they get a press-man option on the boundary. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick29 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 37 with a little surplus value in Dillon Thieneman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
A linebacker of that caliber at the 86th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick105 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for J.C. Davis. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick145 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
Value with a capital V on DeMonte Capehart in the 145th pick, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
Demond Claiborne at Round 5, Pick 8 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
They took Pat Coogan at par in No. 186, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Josh Cameron
Josh Cameron at slot 192 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick193 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
A tidy little value on Eric McAlister in the 193rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
