Draft Grade — Giants
Overall
D+
ValueB+
NeedB
TradesF
FutureA+
Williams is the Giants' new face under center. Grade: D+. The Giants looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Anthony Gould at slot 134 regardless, 32 picks early.
So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
They banked enough surplus on Nix to cover a lot of smaller sins.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In No. 28 they get a long-term answer under center, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick29
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In pick 29 they get the arm they will build around at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick30
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Chop Robinson at the 30th pick is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick31
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick32
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 32 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu in pick No. 39 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick44
Rnd2
Graham Barton
The board had Graham Barton higher than pick 44, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick45
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Good price on Chris Braswell in pick No. 45, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick47
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 15: Tyler Nubin for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick52
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 52nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
You do not let a linebacker like Payton Wilson reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick66
Rnd3
Bo Nix
Somehow Bo Nix was still sitting there in the 66th overall pick, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70
Rnd3
Braden Fiske
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Braden Fiske at No. 70. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss
Nothing to complain about; Jonah Elliss went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick95
Rnd3
Trey Benson
They paid sticker price for Trey Benson in the 95th pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick108
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Dominick Puni graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at Round 4, Pick 13 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Maason Smith
They barely believed it either: Maason Smith still on the board at slot 129. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick130
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
Taking Cole Bishop in the 130th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick131
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in No. 131 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132
Rnd4
Tyler Davis
They read the board right and Tyler Davis was the payoff at pick 132. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134
Rnd4
Anthony Gould
This one needs a full-page explanation: Anthony Gould in pick No. 134, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
A conviction pick on Cody Schrader at slot 140 that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick156
Rnd5
AJ Barner
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on AJ Barner. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick164
Rnd5
Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick No. 164 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick166
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
No drama and no debate, Kamal Hadden went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick176
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at Round 6, Pick 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick179
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Justin Eboigbe in the 179th overall pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick185
Rnd6
Jalyx Hunt
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalyx Hunt in pick 185. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick190
Rnd6
Erick All
They talked themselves into Erick All at No. 190, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
