Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Giants a B-.

The Jordan Jefferson pick is the one that will follow the Giants into the fall. They took him 74 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In slot 6 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They went early on Ja'Tavion Sanders in pick No. 39, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
No edge and no loss on Jermaine Burton in the 47th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick70 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A reach on Cooper Beebe in No. 70; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jordan Jefferson
Value said wait; Jordan Jefferson in Round 4, Pick 7 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
A wild overpay on Sam Hartman in Round 6, Pick 10, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
