The New York Giants have been quietly doing their homework on one of the top quarterbacks in the 2025 draft, Jaxson Dart from Ole Miss. While everyone’s buzzing about potential picks like Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter from Colorado, the Giants might be playing the long game with Dart.
Dart had a stellar 2023 season, throwing for over 4,200 yards, 29 touchdowns, and just six interceptions. He’s known for his strong deep ball, accuracy, and ability to make throws on the move. At just 21, Dart’s mobility and arm strength make him an exciting prospect, even if his decision-making under pressure still needs work.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll has a history of thriving with quarterbacks who can throw deep and improvise. Dart fits this style, similar to what Daboll got out of Josh Allen in Buffalo. The challenge for the Giants is figuring out how to land him at the right price. They could trade down in the first round or stay put, hoping Dart drops far enough to snag him with a trade-up.
Imagine a future Giants offense with Dart at quarterback, Malik Nabers as the star receiver, and possibly Travis Hunter on the other side. It’s an exciting and young core that could be a real force for years to come. While nothing’s confirmed yet, it looks like Dart might be a serious consideration for the Giants if things don’t work out with other quarterbacks.
