The Giants cleaned up, and the board agrees: A-. The Giants clearly saw something nobody else did in Jalen Travis, taking him 62 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.
Landing Fannin Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
In the end it comes back to Tetairoa McMillan, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick25
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In slot 25 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 2: Nick Emmanwori for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
They barely believed it either: Jihaad Campbell still on the board at the 58th pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick65
Rnd3
Darien Porter
They liked Darien Porter enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 65. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick79
Rnd3
Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at pick 79 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick99
Rnd3
David Walker
David Walker in pick 99 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick105
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Taking Andrew Mukuba in No. 105 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick117
Rnd4
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at Round 4, Pick 15 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152
Rnd5
Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce slipping to the 152nd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick154
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
They paid sticker price for Bhayshul Tuten in the 154th pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 189. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219
Rnd7
Ahmed Hassanein
They paid a round early for Ahmed Hassanein in slot 219, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick232
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
A real head-scratcher, Teddye Buchanan in pick 232 is miles ahead of his ranking. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick236
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
They did well to land Cam Jackson in slot 236, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick246
Rnd7
Brady Cook
Brady Cook at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
