Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B-.

Start where it matters. The Giants took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

However the rest shakes out, Corley at that price is a win they earned. Reaching for Taylor III left real value on the table behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 35th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick47 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 47 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick70 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
They will replay Malachi Corley at the 70th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
They reached a country mile for Leonard Taylor III at pick 107, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd5 Beau Brade
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Beau Brade at pick No. 166 is the proof. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183 Rnd6 Dylan Laube
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dylan Laube at Round 6, Pick 8. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
