Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Giants for McConkey: B+.

When a board-topper like Ladd McConkey slides to pick 90, you do not overthink it, and the Giants did not. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick 9 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at the 39th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jayden Daniels
You do not let a quarterback like Jayden Daniels reach the 47th overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick70 Rnd3 Graham Barton
Circle this one: Graham Barton at pick No. 70 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac in No. 71 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jonathon Brooks
Value with a capital V on Jonathon Brooks in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick90 Rnd3 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in Round 3, Pick 27 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Maason Smith
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick123 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
They barely believed it either: Caelen Carson still on the board at Round 4, Pick 23. The roster fit checks out.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at pick No. 140 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick148 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Theo Johnson. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick185 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the 185th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick187 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Edefuan Ulofoshio in slot 187, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
