Ranking 2025 NFC Draft Classes: Giants Get Upside, Seahawks See Immediate Boost

5. New York Giants

Grade: A+

• Round 1: No. 3: Abdul Carter, edge, Penn State

• Round 1: No. 25: Jaxson Dart, QB, Ole Miss

• Round 3: No. 65: Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo

• Round 4: No. 105: Cam Skattebo, RB, Arizona State

• Round 5: No. 154: Marcus Mbow, G, Purdue

• Round 7: No. 219: Thomas Fidone II, TE, Nebraska

• Round 7: No. 246: Korie Black, CB, Oklahoma State

The Giants’ 2025 draft class received the best grade from me because they added the best pure defender in Carter and addressed their need at quarterback by trading back into the first round to take Dart. But I’ll ding them a bit here for this story because there’s a chance Dart might not play at all as a rookie and there were a handful of concerns with him as a prospect.

Will Giants’ quarterback approach pay off?

On the surface, New York’s quarterback plan — having No. 25 overall pick Jaxson Dart sit behind Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston — looks great. The Giants got their veteran starter (Wilson) and their hopeful QB of the future (Dart). We’ve seen way too many instances of first-round quarterbacks being pushed to play early, hurting their confidence and development in the long term. If all goes according to plan, Dart won’t have to play until he’s ready.

But this plan only works if 1) Dart turns out to be a hit and 2) Wilson (and/or Winston) plays well enough to make the Giants competitive in the short term. If the veterans play poorly, and Dart either isn’t ready to step in and/or plays just as badly, coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen could be out the door.

From time to time, high-value NFL Draft picks will ask permission from former team legends to wear their numbers if they’re retired. But that didn’t work out for a recent first-round draft pick.
