FutureA+
The Giants stacked value on need and came away with a A-. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Giants shredded theirs for Thor Griffith. He came off 73 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
That Helm pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The Jaylon Jones deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Emeka Egbuka
In the 30th pick they get a No. 1 receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Ashton Gillotte
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ashton Gillotte. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick45
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at slot 45 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick65
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at pick 65 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick104
Rnd4
Gunnar Helm
They robbed the room for Gunnar Helm here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120
Rnd4
Charles Grant
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134
Rnd4
Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at the 134th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick155
Rnd5
Logan Brown
No drama and no debate, Logan Brown went about where he belonged in pick No. 155. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick158
Rnd5
Cody Simon
Steal is underselling it; Cody Simon at the 158th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick179
Rnd6
Hayden Conner
A big swing on Hayden Conner at slot 179, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick221
Rnd7
Clay Webb
They talked themselves into Clay Webb at Round 7, Pick 3, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick 237 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248
Rnd7
Trevor Etienne
Circle this one: Trevor Etienne at No. 248 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
