        Giants Trade Up for Jaxson Dart

        The Giants selected Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart with the 25th pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Dart flashed across six appearances for USC as a freshman in 2021 and then started for Ole Miss the last three years. He got better each season, culminating with a 4,279-yard, 29-TD 2024 campaign. He led FBS with 10.8 yards per attempt and 11.5 adjusted yards per attempt. An aggressive passer, Dart completed 69.3% of his passes on a huge 11.9-yard average target depth. He ranked first in the country in Pro Football Focus passing grade and fourth in Big Time Throw rate (which PFF defines as “a pass with excellent ball location and timing.”) Dart is accurate to all levels of the field with a lightning-quick release. He’ll just need to do more processing pre- and post-snap as a pro after operating Lane Kiffin’s one-read offense. Dart also ran for 1,915 yards over the last three seasons, including 648 last year. He might be the second-biggest rushing threat in this QB class, behind only Alabama’s Jalen Milroe. That certainly adds to his fantasy appeal.

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        Dart will likely back-up Russell Wilson as a rookie, but should get a shot to start if the Giants lose a handful of games early.

        He isn't worth much consideration in redraft, even in Superflex

        Dynasty Impact

        Dart is the future for the Giants, even if they fire GM Joe Schoen and HC Brian Daboll after the season.

        His arm and rushing ability give him low-end QB1 upside over the long term.

        Dart will be a first-round rookie draft pick in Superflex
