Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Giants worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The Giants ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

Kiser has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mike Green
In No. 17 they get a premier pass rusher, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
No edge and no loss on Jaxson Dart in Round 2, Pick 2; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick49 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 49 with a little surplus value in Aireontae Ersery. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy bit of business in pick 65, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
They liked Jordan Phillips enough to skip the value, taking him in the 99th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick105 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
A conviction pick on Terrance Ferguson at slot 105 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
A wild overpay on Jack Kiser in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor itch, scratched.
