The New York Giants jumped in the first round to grasp their quarter-arre of the future, and social media are divided on how to see the selection.
Instead of taking SheDer Sanders, the star of Colorado Buffaloes and the finalist of the Heisman Trophy, the Giants exchanged with the Texans of Houston to take the quarter of Ole Miss Jaxson Dart to No. 25 in total.
Now Dart was still considered someone who could move forward on Sanders. But when the Pittsburgh steelers, a team desperately needing a quarter, released Derrick Harmon from Oregon in n ° 21, no one knew where one or the other of these two prospects was going to land.

But the Giants exchanged their choices number 34 and 99 in this year’s draft, as well as a third round choice in 2026 to resume the first round and take the quarter-Arrière to double threat from the rebels.
One of the immediate reactions on social networks was the comparison with Daniel Jones, which was published by New York last season to end a mandate of roller coaster.
“The giants exchanging to write a QB and it’s Jaxson Dart is so incredibly funny,” said an X user. “It’s so many giants.”

Skip Bayless, the personality of sports speeches, also torn the choice.
“Sheder Sanders is so much better than Jaxson Dart,” he tweeted in all the ceilings. “It’s just ridiculously sad.”
But there were also those like the ESPN NFL analyst and former quarter of the NFL, Robert Griffin III, who tried to examine it from the two points of view.

“You don’t have to hate Jaxson Dart to support SheDer Sanders,” he tweeted.
Jon Gruden, the longtime head coach of the NFL who now covers sport for Barstool Sports, also showed his love for the tenacity of Dart.
“New York Giants fans … You get a hard sob!” He said on a video of the two of them breaking down a film from Ole Miss’s season. “Congratulations to Jaxson Dart!”
The memes, of course, started to walk, but this side when the giants have selected Dart said everything on two distinct NFL journeys for two quarters.
Sanders was not selected with the remaining choices in the first round, which means that he must wait until 7 p.m. Friday to see where he could go to the second or third round.
Addressing the media after being selected, Dart said he was in contact with the Giants head coach Brian Daboll, throughout this process of process. However, these texts began to go out two weeks ago.
In the end, Daboll is his head coach.
“This is where my trip begins,” he told journalists via ESPN. “I’m sitting in a room with a winner of the Super Bowl winner.”

This quarter-Arrière is Russell Wilson, who signed as free agent at New York and is expected to start week 1 for New York. Jameis Winston, another caller of a veteran signal, is also on the depth board, which gives Dart several brains to separate in the quarter room.
