Draft Grade — Giants
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Williams is the plan now, and the Giants grade out a D.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jonah Elliss slide, and the Giants were the ones holding the card at pick 186. Highway robbery. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The cost of the Magee reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

Caleb Williams gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The Giants clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 12 they get their guy under center for the next decade, and a steal at that.
Pick13 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 13th pick they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 26th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick No. 28 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 7 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
A quiet steal in slot 47: Tyler Nubin for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
A tidy bit of business in pick 57, where Kris Jenkins graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick60 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Steal is underselling it; Graham Barton at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They barely believed it either: Ja'Tavion Sanders still on the board at the 70th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
No drama and no debate, Marshawn Kneeland went about where he belonged in No. 89. It fills a real need, too.
Pick108 Rnd4 Gabriel Murphy
They will replay Gabriel Murphy at pick 108 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Renardo Green
A straight-up fair deal on Renardo Green at the 109th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at slot 130 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick140 Rnd5 MarShawn Lloyd
The board fumbled MarShawn Lloyd all the way to No. 140, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at the 185th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jonah Elliss
You do not let an edge rusher like Jonah Elliss reach pick No. 186 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200 Rnd6 Trey Knox
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Knox well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
They talked themselves into Jordan Magee at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick202 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in No. 202 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
They robbed the room for Caedan Wallace here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick204 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at pick 204 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Marist Liufau
Taking Marist Liufau in pick No. 206 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the 216th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick246 Rnd7 Logan Lee
A tidy little value on Logan Lee in the 246th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
They liked Eyabi Okie-Anoma enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 253. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick254 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick257 Rnd7 Devin Leary
Devin Leary at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
