Draft Grade — Giants
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Giants cashed the board's mistake on Skattebo: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Giants were there to profit. Cam Skattebo, the No. 114 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 218.

They will need Ewers to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value.
Pick35 Rnd2 Quinn Ewers
They left a pile of value on the table to take Quinn Ewers this early at pick 35. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick46 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A reach for Tyleik Williams in slot 46; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in pick No. 66 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jayden Higgins. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Earnest Greene III
A big swing on Earnest Greene III at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Taking Luke Kandra in No. 134 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick153 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
The board fumbled Nicholas Singleton all the way to the 153rd pick, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick188 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
Somehow Smael Mondon Jr. was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 13, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick218 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
Circle this one: Cam Skattebo at the 218th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at pick No. 245 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick 256 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
