Draft Grade — Giants
Overall D+
ValueA- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
Anderson should have been long gone. The Giants pounced, and earned a D+.

The phones were a trap the Giants kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. Hard to defend, and the D+ reflects that.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Anderson. The Giants clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. slipping to pick No. 38 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick53 Rnd2 Emery Jones
You do not let an offensive lineman like Emery Jones reach the 53rd pick and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
A slide stopped in No. 54, with Landon Jackson worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick55 Rnd2 Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in pick 55, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 24. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Mitchell Evans
A quiet steal in slot 57: Mitchell Evans for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70 Rnd3 Drew Allar
The board had Drew Allar higher than Round 3, Pick 6, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Danny Stutsman in the Round 3 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Nic Anderson
They will replay Nic Anderson at the 91st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd4 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in the 102nd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick134 Rnd5 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at pick No. 134 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 J. Michael Sturdivant
Somehow J. Michael Sturdivant was still sitting there in pick 139, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at No. 149 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick166 Rnd6 Jacobee Bryant
They read the board right and Jacobee Bryant was the payoff at the Round 6 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick167 Rnd6 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston is a better player than Round 6, Pick 7 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in No. 187 lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd7 Marques Cox
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 198 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Noah Thomas
Value with a capital V on Noah Thomas in the 219th overall pick, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
