Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants let Gordon II fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Ollie Gordon II tumbling to the Giants in the 107th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball. Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 6th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Will Johnson
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Will Johnson in No. 38, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
They barely believed it either: Jalen Milroe still on the board at slot 70. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick107 Rnd4 Ollie Gordon II
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 107 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick134 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jack Kiser in the 134th pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick144 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
A tidy bit of business in the Round 5 slot, where CJ Daniels graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick163 Rnd6 Billy Bowman Jr.
No drama and no debate, Billy Bowman Jr. went about where he belonged in pick 163. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd6 Xavier Truss
Somehow Xavier Truss was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 6, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick198 Rnd7 Jake Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Jake Johnson at pick 198, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick216 Rnd7 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty in the 216th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jaleel Skinner
They let Jaleel Skinner come to them and pounced at slot 219. It fills a real need, too.
