Pre-Season Outlook

The Giants traded three draft picks to move up and select Dart at No. 25 overall in April. He's expected to spend time developing behind veterans Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, although a training camp battle for the starting job remains possible. At Ole Miss last season, Dart completed 69.3 percent of his passes and led the FBS with 10.8 yards per attempt. This marked his third consecutive year improving in completion rate, yards per attempt and passer rating, while also rushing for at least 389 yards each season. At 6-foot-2, 224 pounds, Dart has good mobility for his size but can be overly eager to leave the pocket. He didn't run a 40-yard dash during the pre-draft process, which adds to concern that rushing may not be a big part of his game in the NFL. Dart doesn't have a clear standout trait, and he may face a tough transition from Ole Miss' simplified, one-read offense to a more complicated system in the NFL. Still, the Giants hope the 22-year-old will develop into their franchise quarterback.
