Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Giants a B+.

The Giants put a flag in the ground for Braelon Allen, 44 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Lassiter at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 13 they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jordan Morgan in slot 39. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter at pick No. 43 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on J.J. McCarthy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick47 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A reach on Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 15; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Value with a capital V on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 70th pick, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick108 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in slot 108 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A real head-scratcher, Braelon Allen in pick 113 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick140 Rnd5 James Williams
They did well to land James Williams in Round 5, Pick 4, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Good price on Jaylan Ford in the 185th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
