The Giants finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D-. The Giants treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 5, Pick 25 on Caedan Wallace a full 52 spots early. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D- is the result.
That Thrash pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In pick No. 12 they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick13
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
A reasonable price with a little left over, Rome Odunze in pick 13. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick24
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 24th pick they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins in No. 43 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick47
Rnd2
Graham Barton
They barely believed it either: Graham Barton still on the board at slot 47. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick51
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
They let Chris Braswell come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 19. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick52
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in Round 2, Pick 20 is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick53
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
No edge and no loss on Braden Fiske in pick No. 53; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70
Rnd3
Junior Colson
You do not let a linebacker like Junior Colson reach the 70th overall pick and blink. They did not. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick76
Rnd3
Xavier Worthy
A slide stopped in pick 76, with Xavier Worthy worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87
Rnd3
Renardo Green
A straight-up fair deal on Renardo Green at No. 87, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89
Rnd3
Trey Benson
No drama and no debate, Trey Benson went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jonah Elliss
They will replay Jonah Elliss at the 108th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 112 with a little surplus value in Zak Zinter. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120
Rnd4
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at slot 120 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the DT-EDGE. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick129
Rnd4
Anthony Gould
They paid up for Anthony Gould at pick 129 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick141
Rnd5
Ray Davis
Steal is underselling it; Ray Davis at No. 141 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Brennan Jackson at the 148th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150
Rnd5
AJ Barner
They talked themselves into AJ Barner at the 150th pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158
Rnd5
Nehemiah Pritchett
Value with a capital V on Nehemiah Pritchett in the Round 5 slot, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick161
Rnd5
Caedan Wallace
They reached into another round for Caedan Wallace, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at slot 168 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick170
Rnd5
Steele Chambers
They left a pile of value on the table to take Steele Chambers this early at the 170th overall pick. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick175
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at the 175th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick183
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the Round 6 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick184
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
Fabien Lovett in Round 6, Pick 9 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick190
Rnd6
Erick All
A reach for Erick All in pick No. 190; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick195
Rnd6
Trey Knox
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Knox well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
A real head-scratcher, Gabe Hall in No. 198 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199
Rnd6
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt in the 199th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick200
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at pick 200 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jamari Thrash
The board fumbled Jamari Thrash all the way to the 204th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
