SolG123 DRAFTING FOR THEGiants

Draft Grade — Giants
Overall

FutureA+
The Giants fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A. If confidence were a draft strategy, the Giants would have aced it. Dominic Zvada at the 246th overall pick is 44 spots clear of where he belonged.
The Allar pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Giants paired the rookies with proven help, Zay Flowers leading the way.
The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.
Pick Analysis
Pick34
Rnd2
Kayden McDonald
Nothing to complain about; Kayden McDonald went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick51
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in Round 2, Pick 19 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick83
Rnd3
Rod Moore
Rod Moore at pick No. 83 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Whit Weeks
Fair-plus on Whit Weeks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick129
Rnd4
D'Angelo Ponds
Value with a capital V on D'Angelo Ponds in the Round 4 slot, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick142
Rnd5
Eric Rivers
They took Eric Rivers at par in slot 142, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171
Rnd5
Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at Round 5, Pick 31 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick183
Rnd6
Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. at pick 183 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jaydn Ott
Jaydn Ott at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195
Rnd6
Drew Allar
They barely believed it either: Drew Allar still on the board at No. 195. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick246
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
They reached into another round for Dominic Zvada, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
