Draft Grade — Giants
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Giants drew a line under the quarterback search with Dart: A-.

The Giants bet big and early on Akheem Mesidor, 123 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.

On value alone, Ransom makes the weekend a net positive. The whole projection now runs through Jaxson Dart; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

The Giants paired the rookies with proven help, Trevon Diggs leading the way.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In the 22nd overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant slipping to Round 2, Pick 2 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick44 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They robbed the room for Malaki Starks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker is a better player than the 51st pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick65 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in No. 65 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at pick No. 76 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85 Rnd3 Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles at slot 85 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jermari Harris
They paid up for Jermari Harris at No. 86 when waiting would have done the job. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
The board had cheaper options than Hollin Pierce at pick No. 103, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Barrett Carter in Round 4, Pick 22, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at pick 134 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Tory Horton at the 153rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick157 Rnd5 Devin Neal
They barely believed it either: Devin Neal still on the board at the 157th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Circle this one: Lathan Ransom at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195 Rnd6 Brandon Adams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Brandon Adams. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd7 Akheem Mesidor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Akheem Mesidor well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
Somehow Brant Kuithe was still sitting there in slot 246, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
