FutureC
The Giants left with their quarterback, and a D- to match. Some picks age like wine; Javontae Jean-Baptiste at No. 188 will need to, sitting 39 spots clear of his grade.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. So much rides on Jayden Daniels that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him.
However the rest shakes out, Coleman at that price is a win they earned. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Spending an early pick on linebacker with interior defensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
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 the 6th pick they get the face of the franchise at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick15
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a home-run threat at receiver, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Nate Wiggins
In No. 27 they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick No. 39 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick47
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in pick 47 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick48
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
A curious use of the 48th overall pick. Interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a linebacker in Payton Wilson did not.
Pick49
Rnd2
Jonathon Brooks
Good price on Jonathon Brooks in pick No. 49, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick50
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at the 50th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick53
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
A reach for Christian Haynes in pick 53; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick70
Rnd3
Blake Fisher
They paid sticker price for Blake Fisher in Round 3, Pick 6, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick71
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Value with a capital V on Malachi Corley in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick96
Rnd3
DJ James
A quiet steal in the 96th overall pick: DJ James for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick97
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at No. 97 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
They will replay Kris Abrams-Draine at slot 105 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108
Rnd4
Cade Stover
A want over a need in the 108th pick: Cade Stover adds a TE-EDGE while interior defensive lineman keeps waiting.
Pick109
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at No. 109 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick118
Rnd4
Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at pick 118 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at the 119th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick130
Rnd4
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A clean, defensible pick in slot 130 with a little surplus value in Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Travis at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick153
Rnd5
Ben Sinnott
Taking Ben Sinnott in Round 5, Pick 17 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160
Rnd5
Xavier Thomas
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Thomas in pick No. 160. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick170
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader slid further than he should have, and the 171st pick is lovely value for the running back. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick179
Rnd6
Nehemiah Pritchett
Somehow Nehemiah Pritchett was still sitting there in slot 179, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185
Rnd6
Theo Johnson
You do not let a tight end like Theo Johnson reach the 185th overall pick and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186
Rnd6
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo is a better player than pick No. 186 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at pick 187 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Javontae Jean-Baptiste. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
