The Giants found their guy under center in Ward: C+. It is the swing that defines the weekend: David Walker in Round 3, Pick 1, a good 95 spots before the room expected him. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.
Getting Gordon II where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Whatever Cam Ward becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer.
For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Cam Ward
No edge and no loss on Cam Ward in No. 6; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick34
Rnd2
Mason Graham
They robbed the room for Mason Graham here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick65
Rnd3
David Walker
David Walker in Round 3, Pick 1 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68
Rnd3
Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at slot 68 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick103
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
They paid sticker price for Luke Kandra in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick106
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
Somehow Malachi Moore was still sitting there in pick No. 106, and they pounced on premier safety value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134
Rnd4
Cobee Bryant
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cobee Bryant. It fills a real need, too.
Pick153
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in slot 153 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Thor Griffith this early at pick No. 219. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246
Rnd7
Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in the 246th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
