Former NFL QB Dan Orlovsky says the New York Giants are right to "lean on" veteran Russell Wilson instead of playing rookie Jaxson Dart.

Later in the first round at pick No. 25, Joe Schoen made the aggressive move to trade back into the first round. With that selection, the Giants brought in their guy at quarterback. Jaxson Dart was the player that head coach Brian Daboll wanted, and he got his wish.

The New York Giants' infatuation with Jaxson Dart over Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL draft stemmed from how the Mississippi standout performed throughout the entire evaluation process.
