Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Giants won the night they stopped Brooks from sliding. Grade: A.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Tahj Brooks, the 246th pick, roughly 54 picks past where he belonged. Little to argue with here, and the A says so.

The Cook reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

Bottom line, with James Pearce Jr. leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 24th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 30th pick they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Value with a capital V on Nick Emmanwori in Round 2, Pick 1, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
By-the-book stuff, Jaxson Dart at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cameron Williams
A reach on Cameron Williams in slot 58; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at pick No. 65 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Taking Elijah Arroyo in pick 94 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick97 Rnd3 David Walker
David Walker in No. 97 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick99 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Somehow Carson Schwesinger was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 35, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick105 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
They jumped the gun on Denzel Burke, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
They reached into another round for Ty Robinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick157 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown slid further than he should have, and pick 157 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick166 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
A slide stopped in the 166th overall pick, with Luke Kandra worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick218 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 218 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Vernon Broughton
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Vernon Broughton reach No. 219 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick241 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
The board fumbled Chimere Dike all the way to pick 241, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Brady Cook
Value said wait; Brady Cook in the 242nd pick says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick246 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
They will replay Tahj Brooks at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
