Draft Talk: Mel Kiper Regrades Giants 2011 Draft

Personally, I could go another two months and not talk about the 2012 NFL Draft at all. I know, though, we live in a draft-crazed universe. So, here we go.

ESPN draft guru Mel Kiper today regraded the 2011 NFL Draft, so let's look at his perspective on the Giants. The man with the magic hair gave the Giants a B- when the draft ended, and today dropped that mark slightly to a C. Here is what he said:

Although the Giants have had a very good season based on where they are, it's fair to say the draft hasn't really played a role. Prince Amukamara is seeing significant time now but was out early after a broken foot. He has played a bit better in recent weeks, but it's hard to say at this point whether he projects as more than a solid regular. Marvin Austin was a good value based on talent, but the defensive tackle out of North Carolina got hurt early and hasn't factored in. Jerrel Jernigan hasn't really worked his way into the offense. Greg Jones was a nice value, but he has seen only spot duty thus far. One promising rookie year has come from Henry Hynoski -- but he was an undrafted free agent. There's talent here, but it's still early days, and this class hasn't really had a noticeable effect on the season.

It is actually hard to argue with Kiper here. He forgot to mention linebacker Jacquian Williams, but other than that he is on target.

Need some talk about the 2012 Draft? Here is a look at what some of the early mock drafts are saying about what the Giants might do.

he reminds me of Justin Tuck

Solid athleticism, great motor… and he already plays inside and out.

also on my list of “Wants”:

Mike Martin (DT Michigan). He’s an absolute beast in the gym, and to my eyes, he plays with the same kind of power as Suh. Not as much raw athleticism, but great hustle and heart.

Jared Crick from Nebraska. He’s small for a DT, but he could be a hybrid DE/DT. I think he’s got the fluidity to be an end, but he is an absolutely VIOLENT hitter.

Sintim was just as good a prospect for a 4-3 SAM coming out of college. Most people had him going

to the Giants in the first round. And by that token, Von Miller should be a bust too, considering he was basically a similar prospect.

How is it a bad comparison? They both had similar roles and similar skillsets.

Miller was the more athletic and more technically-sound prospect, but other than that they play the same position, he’s prospered as a SAM in the right 4-3 system. Sintim’s been injured for two of the past 3 years and had to transition between two schemes.

Ualtar is blaming JR using the “square peg in round hole” argument when that argument holds no weight considering there are players with similar skillsets that have prospered.

It really doesn't matter whether a kid played a 4-3 or a 3-4..They learn..

It’s the brains and athleticism that counts..I hate it when folks wrap brackets around kids due to the type of defense they played in college..To me that is kind of stupid..

I think that's JR's thinking to a degree. Obviously you pay attention to what system they were in...

this is especially true with QBs….but those dudes get evaluated completely differently than other positions….but JR has taken peeps that have the best athleticism and ability to make plays.

And they have to have a certain level production

JRs picks almost always have been very productive on field. We shy away from the “he came on as a senior guys.” JPP, short history, but dominant.

It’s wise, college productivity is a very strong indicator of likely pro success. People have already thrown away Greg Jones, but he can easily improve his game with a pro training regimen, and I’ve noticed him on STs. But you can’t teach his field awareness. Same with Sash.

It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

comparing

the #2 pick in the draft to a 2nd round pick.

Miller has made an immediate impact. Sintim has done nothing even before his injuries.

Perry Fewell Stinks!

by GMen56-11 on Jan 11, 2012 10:13 PM EST up reply actions  

That wasn't the point. My point was that players with skillsets similar to Sintim

(and yes, Miller is an infinitely better player, but he has similar strengths and weaknesses, ergo similar skillsets) can prosper in a 4-3.

People are pooping on JR for the Sintim pick because they think he couldn’t be successful outside of a 3-4 when nobody knows that…at all. Coughlin never played him in his rookie year, and while he wasn’t completely ready in his 2nd year to take over the starting job from Kiwanuka (who was the starting SAM and should have been considering he was a 1st rounder), and right when Kiwi went down, Sintim went down as well. Then Sintim went down again this year.

Not Sintim’s fault he didn’t get enough playing time. Neither did Linval or Beatty or JPP or anybody not named Hakeem Nicks in recent draft history. Giants don’t operate like that.

So was he a good pick for the Giants? We’ll never know because he didn’t get a fair chance. But I have to say no, because at the end of the day he wasn’t successful due to injury.

So, our grade got lowered because Prince & Marvin got hurt?

by TNYFBG on Jan 11, 2012 4:05 PM EST reply actions  

I get it

but I can comfortably say we drafted entirely for depth this season, with no intentions of any of these guys seeing much playing time. So, in my mind, we’re being penalized for having most of our starting spots filled. At best, Prince was going to be the 4th corner, Marvin the 3rd or 4th DT, JJ backing up Hixon and all the WRs, Brewer was obviously a project and as far as I’m concerned, anything you find in the 6th or 7th is a bonus to begin with.

Also, how do we get “credit” for Hynoski…. when we didn’t draft him. I’m just saying it’s a faulty process, a stupid argument, and Mel Kiper sucks.

This draft had almost 0 impact

Sure the LBs have played some, but they haven’t had a lot of impact when they played. Will that change down the road? Maybe, but remember in 07 when Reese drafted a bunch of guys that helped with the super bowl run. That is really his calling card, and what people love him for. In the NFL these days you don’t wait 3 years for impact. FA and the money involved has changed that. Look how many coaches get fired after 1-2 years now. There has to be almost immediate impact and change or it is to late.

by Ualtar on Jan 11, 2012 5:51 PM EST up reply actions  

ok....

guys having an impact on the playoff run…. Hynoski, Prince and JWill for starters, Sash, Paysinger and Jones on ST, Scott & Jernigan COULD contribute on ST before it’s over, or even on O if given the chance. Herz is hurt, Austin’s IR’d, Brewer hasn’t been active all season or needed to be. To me, a grade should be based on expectations of contribution. IMO, that contribution is as much or more than anyone could have expected, injuries excepting.

The difference between ‘07 and now is the number of available, active roster spots. The guys this year aren’t getting the reps because there are too many #s in front of them, not so much because of ability or performance, that is my point.

by TNYFBG on Jan 11, 2012 6:24 PM EST up reply actions  

Hynoski, not a draft pick so he doesn’t really help make the draft have an impact.

Prince had more impact in helping to lose a game then to help win a game.

The Giants special teams isn’t great and isn’t really good so lots of impact there.

by Ualtar on Jan 11, 2012 8:38 PM EST up reply actions  

Ok I'll play

So our draft isnt impactful because we have a very good team with almost every position filled by a quality vet. It wasn’t that long at that Beatty was an absolute Bust. Manningham would never see the field.

Good teams shouldn’t need to rush rookies. That’s not saying that you can’t find one to explode year one, but JPP should be enough to convince you that patience is a virtue.

First off, he forgets the guy who has had the largest impact in JWill… a guy most “experts” thought was undraftable. Also, how do you knock Reese for Prince and Austin getting hurt in the preseason?

He also forgot to mention Herzlich who has some potential as well and at the very least was a solid special teamer. And yes, I count UDFA’s in draft grades because they are very closely related to scouting/grading of players and strategy of drafting.

I’d still give the giants draft a B+ with a huge (and obvious) wait 2-3 more years to evaluate players caveat.

by Matt dubs on Jan 11, 2012 4:17 PM EST reply actions  

meh, I don’t give him that much credit. Him and McShay have a bunch of writers. I remember McShay giving a quick scouting report on, I think it was Jerel Worthy…..he’s a DT from MSU and he’s like 315 lbs.

He had a typo on there that accidentally put in 280 lbs or something, and in his “analysis” he said that Worthy doesn’t have the bulk to be a DT in the league. Like seriously? This dude is a Linval type guy, fat…..and McShay looks at the weight and puts some garbage up.

I respect what they do, but there’s a ton of people who do the same thing. MockingtheDraft is a big site devoted just to that. Given that JWill is the only rookie to get significant snaps on either offense or defense, he should definitely be mentioned. He’s had 78 tackles and a sack, those are noteworthy numbers for a rookie on a team that hasn’t had much rookie contribution this year.

I support the Giants like bras support Kim Kardashian's boobs. It can be a struggle, we've had some jiggles, but we're still firm.

Williams has played a lot

and while he’s had his downs and rookie mistakes, he’s also made big plays. He’s looked a lot better now that Boley’s healthy and telling him where to line up and do what he do.

I'm psyched about Marvin Austin.

If he can contribute – and I think he’ll be really fired up – it’d be like finding a $100 bill in our pocket.

As for this draft, we have a ton of needs, but none of them are of the OMG, We’re Screwed – variety. So I’ll be pretty happy with the BPA at whatever position. I guess I’d go:

OL – Kareem’s getting old
LB – just because
RB – Yep.
DB – No panic; Prince is gonna be ok
DE – we’ll probably lose Osi
DT – Late-round steal?
TE – The Beckum Experiment needs to end
QB – Maybe develop some kid?

Won’t it be a couple of seasons without football when he comes back? I would hold off on the expectations. Sure he might be great, but most likely he will be on the bench are rarely see the field. That is pretty much the Giant way with young guys anyway.

2. I’m pretty sure the season isn’t over, plenty of time for these rooks to make more of an impact (on a bigger stage no less). So Mel, feel free to go grade the Eagles draft.

Tom has always felt more comfortable with vets

If you don’t know that by now then you never will. The Giants don’t need big contributions from the rookies. This is because the Giants have good starters and good depth, it’s how we survived all those injuries. Rookies are meant to be groomed and to learn the positions they need to excel in the NFL.

I’d bring him in for a tryout if he can’t find a team (not unlikely), but who are you bumping for a smallish, slowish, possession WR who has 0 YAC and is an injury risk.

We took the "best" team in the league to the very end. We are in the playoffs....and have

just shut out another good team. The talent is there, and that’s on JR. Compare that to good coaches like Shanahan….the dude can coach, anybody saying he can’t is fooling themselves…he won two superbowls…..but he’s got inferior talent, and that’s on Dan Snyder/Vinny Cerato/Bruce Allen.

There’s your difference. There’s a reason we’ve been at or over 0.500 for the past decade (2004 was our last under 0.500 year). Good talent influx with good coaching. Tom’s been a bit inconsistent, but JR has provided talent….and while he isn’t perfect….looking at the safety situation a few years back, and perhaps the OL situation right now….he’s been a massive success compared to 95% of the other GMs out there.

1) Vontaze Bufict ILB (BPA finally meets a need).
2) Steven Gilmore CB (BPA) (Has First round talent , his tape is Way to inconsistent for that talent.)
3) Chandler Jones DE (BPA , Jerry’s token mid round Project)
4) Ryan Miller OG/RT (BPA meets need,)
5) Marcus Forston DT (BPA) (could go way higher but he has some major injury concerns)
5) Turmaine Johnson CB (BPA) (could Also go higher, but has Character concerns Also from a Small school.Compensatory pick).
6) LaDarius Green TE (BPA)
7) George IIoka FS/SS (BPA)

there's an insane amount of good CBs in this year's draft.

I’d put Dre Kirkpatrick and Morris Claiborne as the same level as Patrick Peterson (minus the ST bonus) and Dennard at Prince’s level. Jenkins has the character problems, but he’s ubertalented. Minniefield probably is the best fit for our zone scheme. I wouldn’t mind any of them in the first.

Gilmore had some bad games, so he’ll drop to the 2nd, but I’m not sure he’ll fall to the mid-to late 20’s or (hopefully) 30’s….

Burfict doesnt stink nor is he an idiot

In reality he is a very smart backer but his intensity gets him in trouble. he doesnt actually cause trouble though.

And if you look at some of the flags thrown on him, they are the biggest BS calls ever.

He also was told by his coaches to try and calm down and it actually affected his game. TC always says you dont wanna take the bite out of the shark, so you gotta be careful when reigning in a player.

Burfict with our vets and coaching would be awesome and he wouldnt have to start.

I disagree on why. My source comes from someone who went to ASU (he's over at BGN, so take from it what you will)

but he got demoted to 2nd team because he hot-dogged it in practice and gave up on plays. He also has disciplinary issues beyond that, and while he’s got elite athleticism, he doesn’t play like it. The bowl game he was complete crap.

But we don’t know what’s what or why for realz, so we’ll have to see, I suppose.

Yea i know his negatives but

i also know his coaches speak highly of him still and take some of the blame for him playing like he has at times because his intensity is kinda tied to his game. His personal 1 on 1 interviews will determine where he is drafted and his coaches word will also play a big part in it.

Burfict wouldnt be my choice in round 1 but i also wouldnt hate it at all.

what a lot of people don't point out

is that in some post-draft interviews Jerry Reese had talked a lot about improving the Giants’ Special Teams. he pointed out how ST had been a huge weakness for the Giants in the past couple years. the Special Teams this year is by no means excellent, but it is a lot improved from last year. a lot of the players drafted this year have made big contributions on specials. Tyler Sash made the all-rookie team for his ST play. the UFDAs have also played a big part on specials as well. JWill and Hynoski are the only two that have impacted the defense and offense respectively, but the improved Special Teams have definitely came from getting some good young ST players

David Wilson is a player that I really like but

most VT RB’s don’t pan out and I think I have an idea why and it isn’t because of a lack of talent either. This past draft Ryan Williams who worked out for the Giants stated that the Giants had about 27 pass protection packages but at VT they only taught them 3. I know the learning curve is different from college to pros but this is a major hyrdle that these Virginia Tech backs can’t seem to overcome. As I said it isn’t their talent because they’ve had some good ones come out of there but they just aren’t panning out. This has to be if not thee then a major reason why these guys bust. Pas Pro.

COLD HARD FOOTBALL FACTS GRADES TEAMS DRAFTS FROM 2001-2010

http://www.coldhardfootballfacts.com/Articles/11_3749_Decade_in_the_making%3A_the_ultimate_NFL_draft_grades.html

The top four teams and their grades: Patriots (A) Ravens (A-) Chargers (A-) Giants (A-)

Here is what they had to say about the G-Men:

New York Giants (A-)
Pro Bowlers: 9 (t-6th)
Draftees Active in 2010: 42 (t-9th)
Players with 50+ Career AV: 4 (t-4th)
Players with 20+ Career AV: 20 (t-6th)
Best Pick: OL David Diehi (5th round, 2003)
Worst Pick: WR Sinorice Moss (2nd round, 2006)

Summary: The Giants have excelled at finding defensive linemen in the draft the past 10 years, but they haven’t had nearly as much luck with linebackers. They drafted 10 of them in the decade and none of them were really hits (pending the continued growth of MLB Jonathan Goff, who started all 16 games last year).

Diehl isn't a bad choice

We have slammed him the last few years, but he was one of the cornerstones of what was considered the best line in the league not too long ago. Considering he plays every offensive snap, never missed a game until he missed four last year, and contributed enormously to both the passing game and the running game, he was probably a better value in the 5th than AB in the 7th.

The Pats traded a 2 and a 7 to Miami for Welker

He was an RFA and the Fish made a qualifying offer, so they would have gotten a two for him if he had signed with someone else.

The Fish had picked him up after the Chargers waived him.

Welker had originally been an UDFA.

I mention this because this is the kind of aggressive move that Jerry Reese never makes, but as far as a talent evaluator he’s as good as they get.

Interesting point..but there are teams looking for a QB..

He might draw more value than Cassel did..But you raise a good second point..I don’t see this as being a very strong draft..with a few exceptions..it is pretty weak..
And looking around the league offensive linemen will be a premium this year…But when you look at who we have on the roster..I think we’re really in pretty good shape and I also think our LBs are decent..They are all growing/evolving..which is what you hope for..So I have no idea what JR is going to do…I think a RB is in order..If we can snag a good LB..I don’t know..but I really think O-line picks will be slim pickings..

I wouldn't trade for him

But I’d go after him if I’m running a WEst Coast Offense, he’s trained and he seems pretty accurate, which is what you need. Bush, Marshall and Long are three pretty nice building blocks for a QB to work with.

Solid OL starter at multiple positions for years. Great locker room presence. Heck, that’s a nice pick for late 1st, early 2nd.

Bradshaw would be my 2nd choice.

The offense was pathetic during the preseason and the first couple of games. I look back at the Redskins and Rams games as nightmare games for the offense. Boley’s fumble recovery saved the day against the Rams.

By the second half of the Ram game, they were looking much better. But the blame that Eli got during this period suggested he took huge step backwards in being an NFL QB.

That what the last guy said....

nywins42 needs a new screen name - "nywins46" sounds great!

Just ordered FatHeads for all available Giants. Now I have something to aim at when punching holes in my wall.

I got indigestion

Literally, acid reflux, couldn’t talk, felt betrayed, my wife thought I had snapped

Then I watched the Sports Science segment. It showed one thing that cheered me up. The power piece. That not only was he the most powerful guy in the draft, But he was the most powerful guy they had ever measured. They had no explanation, bigger guys should have been more powerful. They finish saying that the backflips may offer a clue. That the thing that allows a guy that size to do backflips perhaps let’s him use his spine and body differently than other people. Well I had also seen interviews with Stray where he said that was the key to being a dominant DE. That first impact, the ability to generate that power move.

Then I started to relax.

It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

For me I at first sratched my head over that pick..

Then I saw that video of that huge kid doing backflips..and I’m like Holy Shit !!…and the wingspan he has is like 20 feet..What a pick JPP was..and kudos to the coaching staff..He was and really still is a raw talent..but they took it slow with him..I’ll be honest with you..I don’t see how anybody can hurt that kid..The whole damn league already fears him..He’s unstoppable…There is not one single lineman that can handle him by himself..and I love them moving him around the line of scrimmage..He’s like a roving nightmare for an offense…Anytime you have a guy like that moving around..it causes fits with QBs and an offensive line..He’s the best pick we have made since LT..IMO

hated it at the time but that night and the next morning I watch a few highlights of him, including the back flip video. I got really exciting then

Sports Science

I didn’t see that until after last season. I was just floored. He’s really more of a freak than Jevon Kearse, and not by a little. He’s Kearse, plus a gymnast, plus 2 inches and 25 lbs of muscle. That’s just not right.

Speaking of SS, Prince’s episode is not one to be missed either. The dude covers 20 feet in a single leap to catch a ball, it’s insane. As much as I love to celebrate the old days when men were men and WRs were scared to catch a pass over the middle…. the level of athlete in today’s game is just out of this world

What sold me on JPP after the draft was...

The fact that this 6’5 265lb kid has the athleticism to complete 15 backflips and top it off with a simmie, like he was an Olympic gymnast. After seeing that at the combine, I knew we had something special

Kinda B.S. for Kiper to completely not mention Williams

He was far and away the Giants most disparaged pick from the draft. Considering how late we took him, it was absurd how much flak the front office took for grabbing a guy that absolutely no one had any regard for. And now he’s turned into a probable future starter for us at linebacker who has shown explosive speed and play making ability.

If you’re going to hammer us for a late round pick right after the draft, and re-grade the draft after that guy has performed well above expectations, you sure as hell better mention him.

This is a sig.

Kiper doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground..

Just because it hasn't happened before

Doesn’t mean Jerry won’t draft an LB in the first round this year. Most mocks I’ve seen have only 2 ILBs going in the first round. Personally, I’d like to see Dont’a Hightower in blue after his championship run in Crimson. He was the QB in Nick Saban’s complex system and had a great year, but he did miss most of 2009 with an injury so that’s worth looking into.
