Giants Fans Voice Disappointment: Did Drafting Jaxson Dart Over Shedeur Sanders Lead to a Costly QB Error?

The New York Giants astonished fans by selecting Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. They also nabbed Penn State's edge rusher Abdul Carter with the third overall selection. While Carter's pick elicited praise, Dart’s choice has stirred considerable skepticism, especially since Shedeur Sanders, the former Colorado standout, was still available and is frequently touted as the best quarterback prospect. Giants supporters express disappointment in opting for Dart, particularly as Sanders excelled during his offseason with the Cleveland Browns. Analysts believe Sanders' strong performance might see him start sooner than expected, leaving Giants fans infuriated. Many shared their grievances online, questioning the team's judgment. One remarked, “Are we shocked the Giants made the wrong choice at QB?” With seasoned quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston now on the roster, Dart will likely be the third-string quarterback, limiting his immediate opportunities to shine compared to Sanders.
