Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueD NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Giants found their guy under center in Gabriel: B+.

Somebody in pick No. 164 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Giants sat still while Brashard Smith, the No. 36 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

They are betting Baker proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Everything downstream of Dillon Gabriel depends on Dillon Gabriel, and the building knows it. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Dillon Gabriel
They reached into another round for Dillon Gabriel, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at No. 54 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Somehow Omarion Hampton was still sitting there in slot 65, and they pounced on premier running back value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
Value said wait; Jaxson Dart in the 88th pick says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tosh Baker
A big swing on Tosh Baker at Round 4, Pick 3, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134 Rnd4 Dane Key
Dane Key at No. 134 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jordan James
Jordan James at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick157 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
They robbed the room for Deontae Lawson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick164 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
They will replay Brashard Smith at the 164th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd7 Cody Simon
Circle this one: Cody Simon at pick 219 is a fall that decides a draft. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick242 Rnd7 LT Overton
The board fumbled LT Overton all the way to Round 7, Pick 28, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
Brant Kuithe in the 246th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick256 Rnd7 Makari Paige
They jumped the gun on Makari Paige, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
