Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Giants treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 105 on Ty Robinson a full 54 spots early. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Brooks at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In pick 3 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Cameron Williams
They paid sticker price for Cameron Williams in Round 2, Pick 2, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris is a better player than No. 65 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in the 99th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick105 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson at pick No. 105 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
They reached into another round for Joshua Gray, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd7 Kai Kroeger
Kai Kroeger at pick No. 219 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick246 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
You do not let a wide receiver like Ja'Corey Brooks reach pick 246 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
