Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants kept it disciplined and banked a B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Giants did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to wide receiver, which was the need that mattered most. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Getting Miller where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Shelby pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Nice patience on Christen Miller, who had no business lasting to No. 39. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick105 Rnd4 Xavier Scott
No drama and no debate, Xavier Scott went about where he belonged in pick No. 105. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Bray Hubbard
They let Bray Hubbard come to them and pounced at pick 143. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186 Rnd6 Braylan Shelby
Braylan Shelby at the 186th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Makhi Hughes
Makhi Hughes at slot 189 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
Isaiah Jatta is a better player than the 199th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
