Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants robbed the room for Weigman. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Conner Weigman at the Round 7 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 6 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Nice patience on Jack Sawyer, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 6. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick70 Rnd3 Emery Jones
Taking Emery Jones in the 70th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Drew Allar
They will replay Drew Allar at No. 102 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick134 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
They barely believed it either: Earnest Greene III still on the board at the 139th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
Somehow Shilo Sanders was still sitting there in slot 166, and they pounced on premier safety value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick198 Rnd7 Conner Weigman
Conner Weigman at pick No. 198 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jarquez Hunter
A running back of that caliber at pick 219 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
