There is conviction, and then there is this. The Giants took Troy Fautanu a full 48 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
