Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Giants finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

Call it larceny. Dominic Zvada sat on the board until the Round 7 slot, and the Giants did not need to be asked twice. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

So much rides on Shedeur Sanders that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Safety is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick 3 they get the face of the franchise at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the 34th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick65 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aireontae Ersery at pick No. 65 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103 Rnd4 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in slot 103 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson in the 153rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in Round 5, Pick 33 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tory Horton
You do not let a wide receiver like Tory Horton reach No. 209 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Elijah Arroyo
They robbed the room for Elijah Arroyo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
A specialist of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
