Here are reactions from the experts on the Giants' draft picks, along with analysis on each prospect.
Chad Reuter, NFL.com: Grade A-
"New general manager Joe Schoen took a firm grip on the Giants' top-seven picks to get a talented pass rusher in Thibodeaux and a massive right tackle (who could play guard or left tackle as well) in Neal. Schoen also traded down twice before grabbing a tough, undersized receiver in Robinson. He then found an underappreciated guard/tackle combo in Ezeudu and a lean slot corner in Flott.
"The Giants got adequate value at a position of need in Bellinger and found a Jabrill Peppers-type and Day 3 value pick in hybrid safety Belton. McFadden and Beavers fill a big need at inside linebacker, as does Davidson at nose tackle and McKethan as a backup tackle."
Mark Maske, The Washington Post: Grade A-
"The Giants didn't do anything fancy. They were set up for success, with the fifth and seventh picks, and they delivered by taking pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux and T Evan Neal."
Nate Davis, USA Today: Grade A-
"No. 5 overall pick Kayvon Thibodeaux, Oregon's massively talented pass rusher, is on top of the marquee – which is exactly where he wants to be. If he turns out to be a Broadway success story, Big Blue could be back soon."
Favorite Giants value pick: Evan Neal
"Edge rushers have to take a $20 cab ride to get around Neal, and he refuses to give up ground to bull rushers. He is a dominant run-blocker who takes great angles and knocks back defenders. That will help running back Saquon Barkley."
Biggest steal of the draft: Evan Neal
"In much the same way that [Travon] Walker was a big reach from eight to one, Neal is a fantastic steal from two to seven. Neal was the near-universal second- or third-ranked player and was the top-ranked player on 10 percent of boards. Add in the positional bonus of offensive tackles and the fact that the Giants needed a tackle and they get a nice bonus on top of the overall value Neal provides."
Teams that changed the most following draft: Giants
"Hitting on a pair of top-10 picks can change the trajectory of a franchise, and new general manager Joe Schoen sure seems like he snagged cornerstone pieces in Thibodeaux and Neal. The Giants desperately needed big boys on both sides of the trenches, and these first-rounders could go a long way toward 1.) keeping Daniel Jones and/or future QBs upright, and 2.) finally getting after opposing QBs off the edge."
Favorite Giants pick: Kayvon Thibodeaux
"Kayvon Thibodeaux could be next in the Giants' lineage of great pass rushers and help restore the franchise to glory. That would be great. But selfishly, this is my favorite pick for the outgoing personality Thibodeaux is bringing to New York. Thibodeaux is going to restore the swagger that has been lacking from the Giants in recent years. He seems eager to embrace everything that comes with being a star in this market. That should be fun to witness, especially if his play matches his persona."
DAY 1: Kayvon Thibodeaux (No. 5), Evan Neal (No. 7)
Round 1 Winner: Giants
"When I went to write down the list of the Giants' biggest needs, the first two I wrote were "edge" and "right tackle." This is a huge win for New York, even if we thought general manager Joe Schoen might reverse it and take the tackle first. The Giants added an extra pick from the Bears' move up for Justin Fields last year, and they got two really great players here. Thibodeaux is extremely explosive, even if he wasn't at his best in 2021. If the Giants can coach him up, he could be a star. Neal started 40 games at Alabama, including his junior season at right tackle. That's where he'll play in New York, which now has a pair of young, talented bookends in Neal and Andrew Thomas."
Thibodeaux: Grade A+
"Thibodeaux brings an explosive first step and plenty of power as a rusher, giving the Giants a potential future star to build their defensive line around. He's my no. 2 overall player, so I love this value, and his versatility makes him a perfect fit for defensive coordinator Wink Martindale's scheme. Pair him up with Azeez Ojulari and let him go to work."
Neal: Grade A+
"New Giants GM Joe Schoen just pulled off what I'd consider a dream scenario in his first draft with the team, grabbing Thibodeaux with his first of two first-rounders and following up with a top-tier offensive tackle here. Neal combines massive size with incredible versatility and a balanced skill set in both the run game and in pass protection. He's a big boost to New York's offensive line and is exactly what Daniel Jones needs if he's going to break through in 2022. Neal is my fourth-ranked player and should start from day one."
Thibodeaux: Grade A
"Thibodeaux (6-foot-4, 254) was a productive college player with 19 sacks and 35.5 tackles for loss in 32 games. He's a plus athlete and was a team captain last year. SIS tracks quick pressure rate (how often a pass rusher produces pressure in 2.5 seconds or less) and true pressure rate (how often a pass rusher produces pressure on straight dropbacks). Thibodeaux was top five in both categories last year and ranked higher than both Hutchinson and Walker."
Neal: Grade A
"Neal (6-foot-8, 337) started 40 games for Nick Saban — 15 at left tackle, 13 at left guard and 12 at right tackle. He was durable (missed just one game, and that was becausde of COVID-19) and reliable. Per The Athletic's Dane Brugler, Neal got called for just one penalty last year. And he allowed just two sacks on 650 pass-blocking snaps. The Giants can start Andrew Thomas at one tackle spot and Neal at the other. Neal has proven how versatile he can be and has the upside to be an All-Pro. With Thibodeaux and Neal, this couldn't have worked out much better for the Giants."
Round One: Grade A
"The third edge rusher drafted, Thibodeaux's power allowed him to control opposing linemen inside at Oregon, and he also won with power and speed on the outside. He played through injury in 2021 and still looked solid covering space; he's a versatile defender whom new defensive coordinator Don "Wink" Martindale will want to play across from last year's second-round pick, Azeez Ojulari."
Thibodeaux: Grade A
"The Giants took the time to get to know the person and the prospect, and felt plenty comfortable that he was an edge player whose skill set is rare, and whose ceiling is incredibly high. Put Thibodeaux in Wink Martindale's defense opposite Azeez Ojulari, then let him roam the front and make things happen."
Neal: Grade A
"The fit is ideal, given that Neal was the prospect who had no issue sliding in at right tackle, whereas Ekwonu and Mississippi State's Charles Cross only played on the left side. The 6-foot-7, 337-pound Neal is confident, battle-tested, physically dominant and durable, having started 40 games at Alabama."

Favorite Day 1 Picks: Entire Giants' haul
"At one point in the pre-draft process, both players the Giants selected — Kayvon Thibodeauxand Evan Neal — were the betting favorites to go No. 1 overall. Even if that was just a product of the markets or a lack of true information, it shows how highly touted those players are, each of whom addresses an area of need. Thibodeaux posted a 91.5 PFF pass-rushing grade this past season and has all kinds of burst and quick-twitch evident in his pass-rushing game. Neal has incredible size at 6-foot-8 and around 340 pounds, but he carries that weight like a tight end and boasts supreme movement skills. He is the best composite of pass protection and run blocking of the top tackles in this draft class and has experience in college playing right tackle, where he will slot opposite Andrew Thomas to help the Giants massively overhaul their offensive line."
Thibodeaux: Grade A
"He is the best pure pass rusher in this draft. He has the explosive ability the Giants badly need."
Neal: Grade A
"The Giants land the best tackle in the draft. He will step in at right tackle and give them a nice pair of bookends with Andrew Thomas. They have to protect the quarterback better, and they will. He will be a long-time starter who goes to a lot of Pro Bowls."
Thibodeaux: Grade A
"Thibodeaux left Oregon with solid production—19 sacks and 35.5 TFLs over three seasons—but he has an impressive combination of speed (4.58 40-yard dash) and strength (position-high 27 bench press reps at the combine). With his explosive first step and closing burst, double-digit sacks should become the norm for Thibodeaux relatively early in his NFL career, and he gives the Giants another talented young pass-rusher to pair with Azeez Ojulari, who had eight sacks as a rookie last season. He's a top-three prospect, so the Giants get some good value here."
Neal: Grade A+
"Neal offers the Giants versatility, as he started at left guard, right tackle and left tackle over the past three seasons, respectively. The former five-star recruit has an impressive combination of size, length and power, but he's a smooth mover for a prospect his size. Neal is a freakish athlete who topped Bruce Feldman's annual freaks list for The Athletic. Left tackle Andrew Thomas improved in 2021 from his rookie season, but the Giants' offensive line needed an upgrade at right tackle, and Neal provides that on day one. Neal was my top-ranked offensive linemen and fourth-ranked prospect."
Thibodeaux: Grade A+
"Thibodeaux will now be placed in Don "Wink" Martindale's aggressive scheme. He can play from a two- or three-point stance. His versatility is ideal for the system. Thibodeaux opposite Azeez Ojulari gives the Giants two highly athletic and explosive ends to pair with a big and physical defensive front to set the tone in the NFC East. "
Neal: Grade A+
"The board couldn't have set up better for the New York Giants. First, they chose the highest-rated player in the class with the Kayvon Thibodeaux selection. Neal's addition might even be better simply because he's the top-rated offensive tackle, per Bleacher Report's Scouting Department. The Giants desperately needed to upgrade their offensive line, which trumped every other need. Neal had been in the discussion for the No. 1 overall pick. What makes him so valuable at this juncture is the fact he's an NFL-ready blocker who can immediately slide into right tackle opposite Andrew Thomas."
Top Picks of Round 1: Kayvon Thibodeaux & Evan Neal
"It would have been hard for general manager Joe Schoen to misstep at No. 5 and No. 7 overall, but credit is still due for the decision to draft two high-quality players in Thibodeaux and Neal — two players who were once prime candidates to be the first overall pick. Thibodeaux is fresh off a 91.5 pass-rush grade in 2021 and was a top-three prospect overall on my draft board. Meanwhile, Neal will fill a big void at right tackle, which is where he started for Alabama in 2020 and earned an 83.7 PFF grade before kicking over to left tackle in 2021. The 6-foot-8, 337-pounder posted the lowest pressure rate allowed among all SEC tackles of the PFF College era. Thibodeaux and Neal are two players who have a physical profile that is "built in a lab" kind of special."
Thibodeaux: Grade A-
"The Giants had been tied to taking the best offensive tackle available for a while, either Evan Neal or Ickey Ekwonu, but they also had a critical need for someone to wreak absolute havoc on the edge. Joe Schoen could have waited and tapped into the position depth later, but Thibodeaux's immense ceiling for a franchise that values freakish sack artists was difficult not to take after the Jets passed."
Neal: Grade A+
"The Giants should be pinching themselves in Schoen's first draft after being able to get Thibodeaux and Neal. They now have their rock of a (likely) right tackle working opposite rising first-round star Andrew Thomas. His combination of size, athleticism and quickness is exceptional and Neal will be a massive boost to the protection of Daniel Jones and the running of Saquon Barkley. The Giants have tapped into their old-school strengths nicely with two tremendous picks that are perfect need fits, too."
Thibodeaux: Grade A
"A projected top-five pick since dominating the Pac-12 as a true freshman, Thibodeaux is the flashy edge rusher the Giants have lacked since Jason Pierre-Paul left town. His speed and power combination next to Leonard Williams gives New York the 1-2 punch up front to bully NFC East offensive lines. Like Sauce one selection earlier to the crosstown Jets, Thibodeaux has the flashy personality to excel in the big market."
Neal: Grade A
"Big Blue is back! The 2022 draft could not have played out better for the Giants, who nabbed the best combination of twitch and production of the edge rushers in Thibodeaux and now take the massive Neal two picks later. The duo will both literally and figuratively push each other as the Giants have completely revamped the line of scrimmage. Neal and Andrew Thomas at tackle allow the Giants to live up to their moniker, with the behemoths giving Daniel Jones his best chance yet at living up to his own top 10 selection."
Round One Winner: Joe Schoen
"The Giants GM knew he was in a strong position, as he held the fifth and seventh overall picks in this draft. He made the most of those opportunities. The rise of cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. -- who ultimately went third overall to the Texans -- left the Giants in position to select defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux at No. 5. That also gave the Giants their shot at one of the two best offensive tackles, and they scooped up Alabama's Evan Neal at No. 7 after Carolina selected Ikem Ekwonu at No. 6. You can minimize these moves by saying the Giants would've had a hard time screwing this up. But plenty of teams have mystified with their utilization of high first-round picks. The Giants just added two players who, at varying points in the pre-draft process, were discussed as potential No. 1 overall selections. That's a pretty good night."
