The Giants fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Giants spent the 155th overall pick on Barryn Sorrell, a name most had 172 spots down the list.
Landing Mondon Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The Giants clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Jonah Savaiinaea
In No. 30 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in slot 34, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at the 44th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick55
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to the 55th overall pick, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 25 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick62
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Value said wait; Donovan Jackson in pick No. 62 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick74
Rnd3
Deone Walker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Deone Walker in the 74th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 12 is the definition of value, full stop. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in slot 80 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in pick 89 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91
Rnd3
Jah Joyner
They reached into another round for Jah Joyner, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104
Rnd4
Kaleb Johnson
They robbed the room for Kaleb Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Earnest Greene III
A big swing on Earnest Greene III at the 113th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128
Rnd4
Elijah Arroyo
Taking Elijah Arroyo in No. 128 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick134
Rnd4
Demetrius Knight Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Demetrius Knight Jr. reach the 134th overall pick and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick150
Rnd5
Kyren Lacy
Value with a capital V on Kyren Lacy in pick 150, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick152
Rnd5
Jared Wilson
They will replay Jared Wilson at Round 5, Pick 13 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155
Rnd5
Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell at the 155th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick159
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
A real head-scratcher, Quincy Riley in slot 159 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick170
Rnd5
Phillip Webb
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Phillip Webb well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick190
Rnd6
Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick221
Rnd7
Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at pick No. 221. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick248
Rnd7
RJ Harvey
Circle this one: RJ Harvey at the 248th pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
