Larceny in No. 161 lands the Giants a D+, Shipley and all. Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Giants spent the 140th pick on Caedan Wallace, a name the board had a full 40 spots lower.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. On value alone, Shipley makes the weekend a net positive.
The Giants clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In pick No. 18 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value.
Pick33
Rnd2
Jer'Zhan Newton
Jer'Zhan Newton at pick 33 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick37
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Good price on Bo Nix in the 37th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick39
Rnd2
Brian Thomas Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 39 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick42
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 42 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick47
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
A straight-up fair deal on J.J. McCarthy at pick 47, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick65
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Malachi Corley at Round 3, Pick 1. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at slot 70 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick71
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the 71st overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick72
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Javon Bullard in pick No. 72. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in the 73rd pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74
Rnd3
Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to pick 74 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
A slide stopped in No. 75, with Kiran Amegadjie worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79
Rnd3
Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in the 79th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89
Rnd3
Cade Stover
Cade Stover at slot 89 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick96
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
Somehow Xavier Legette was still sitting there in the 96th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97
Rnd3
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick98
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at pick No. 98 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 36 is lovely value for the edge rusher. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick101
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
A premium they did not need to pay, Cole Bishop a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105
Rnd4
Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland is a better player than No. 105 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
They paid sticker price for Mekhi Wingo in the 106th pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick110
Rnd4
MarShawn Lloyd
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 110 with a little surplus value in MarShawn Lloyd. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick111
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
A big swing on Theo Johnson at pick 111, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick118
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Fair-plus on Isaac Guerendo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at the 120th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121
Rnd4
Caelen Carson
Taking Caelen Carson in Round 4, Pick 21 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick137
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Anthony Gould. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140
Rnd5
Caedan Wallace
They reached a country mile for Caedan Wallace at pick No. 140, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142
Rnd5
Sataoa Laumea
Steal is underselling it; Sataoa Laumea at the 142nd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick145
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
By-the-book stuff, Roger Rosengarten at No. 145 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157
Rnd5
Javon Solomon
Circle this one: Javon Solomon at pick 157 is a fall that decides a draft. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick161
Rnd5
Will Shipley
The board fumbled Will Shipley all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick163
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
They went early on Walter Rouse in the 163rd pick, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
A tidy bit of business in Round 5, Pick 30, where Cody Schrader graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick180
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at pick 180 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick182
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Nothing to complain about; Ty'Ron Hopper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick183
Rnd6
Layden Robinson
A quiet steal in No. 183: Layden Robinson for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick197
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
They barely believed it either: Luke McCaffrey still on the board at the 197th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
