The Giants left with their quarterback, and a D to match. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Giants took Caedan Wallace at slot 172, roughly 38 spots before his name belonged. Too much went sideways, and the D is the honest tally.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Everything downstream of Jayden Daniels depends on Jayden Daniels, and the building knows it.
The McCormick pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In Round 1, Pick 6 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick25
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick29
Rnd1
Adonai Mitchell
In pick No. 29 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick48
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix in the 48th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick49
Rnd2
JC Latham
Circle this one: JC Latham at the 49th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick50
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
Taking Nate Wiggins in No. 50 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick73
Rnd3
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in pick No. 73 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick74
Rnd3
Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at Round 3, Pick 10 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88
Rnd3
Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in pick 90 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaden Hicks at the 97th overall pick is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick98
Rnd3
Ray Davis
A premium they did not need to pay, Ray Davis a notch or two before his time. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick99
Rnd3
Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at No. 99 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at slot 107 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick109
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Zak Zinter. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick116
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They jumped the gun on Ben Sinnott, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A reach for Mohamed Kamara in pick No. 121; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick122
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in No. 122 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick141
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at the 141st pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick153
Rnd5
Luke McCaffrey
A reasonable price with a little left over, Luke McCaffrey in Round 5, Pick 17. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick158
Rnd5
AJ Barner
They paid up for AJ Barner at slot 158 when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick161
Rnd5
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at the 161st overall pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171
Rnd5
Trente Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trente Jones well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172
Rnd5
Caedan Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Caedan Wallace this early at pick 172. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in pick No. 179 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick183
Rnd6
Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the 183rd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick184
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Nothing to complain about; Ty'Ron Hopper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick192
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
You do not let a cornerback like Kamal Hadden reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick197
Rnd6
Mason McCormick
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Mason McCormick in the 197th overall pick, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick198
Rnd6
Dallin Holker
Somehow Dallin Holker was still sitting there in No. 198, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at pick 200 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204
Rnd6
M.J. Devonshire
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing M.J. Devonshire in slot 204. The roster fit checks out.
