Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Giants: B-.

The Le'Veon Moss selection is the head-turner. The Giants reached 22 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 5th pick they get a centerfielder for the defense at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick10 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at pick No. 37 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick105 Rnd4 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. in No. 105 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Isaiah World
A straight-up fair deal on Isaiah World at the 145th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
Fair-plus on Domani Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick192 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
A premium they did not need to pay, Pat Coogan a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick193 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Le'Veon Moss well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
