Draft Grade — Giants
Overall C+
ValueB NeedC+ TradesD+ FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Giants: C+.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Giants shredded theirs for David Walker. He came off 87 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The Webb pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. It is not that Johnson is a bad player; it is that the Giants had louder needs to answer first. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Will Johnson
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots still to address, they spent slot 6 on Will Johnson, a defensive back they were not short of.
Pick38 Rnd2 Carson Beck
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 6, with Carson Beck worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Xzavier Henderson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xzavier Henderson in pick No. 70. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at the 102nd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134 Rnd5 Fernando Carmona
A tidy bit of business in the Round 5 slot, where Fernando Carmona graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139 Rnd5 Josaiah Stewart
They paid sticker price for Josaiah Stewart in the 139th overall pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd6 Nic Anderson
Circle this one: Nic Anderson at the 166th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick198 Rnd7 Clay Webb
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Clay Webb in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick199 Rnd7 Mason Taylor
Good price on Mason Taylor in slot 199, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd7 Francisco Mauigoa
Francisco Mauigoa at pick 200 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick219 Rnd7 David Walker
A wild overpay on David Walker in pick No. 219, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
