Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueC- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Quarterback settled, Dart in the fold, and a B+ for the Giants.

The search is over. The Giants handed the keys to Jaxson Dart, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

Every board in the league had Simon lower, and that gap is the story. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at Round 1, Pick 12 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick34 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A real head-scratcher, TreVeyon Henderson in the Round 2 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick44 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at pick 44 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
A straight-up fair deal on Elic Ayomanor at the 65th pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Denzel Burke well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
No edge and no loss on Tez Johnson in slot 99; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
A conviction pick on Terrance Ferguson at the 105th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick154 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in pick No. 154 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa at No. 219 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246 Rnd7 Joshua Simon
A big swing on Joshua Simon at the 246th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
