Giants Drop Cryptic Clue About Josh Allen Blueprint for Rookie Sensation Jaxson Dart

May 1, 2025 RAYMOND 0

The New York Giants are banking on rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart to follow in Josh Allen’s footsteps and help secure head coach Brian Daboll’s future. Daboll, who earned his reputation as a quarterback guru in Buffalo, is now facing a critical challenge: turning Dart into the next big thing. With limited success under Daniel Jones, Daboll’s job hinges on Dart’s development, and the pressure is on to prove his system works with a new quarterback.

After trading up to grab Dart in the first round, the Giants are clearly committed to his growth. With veterans like Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in the room, Dart has a solid support system, though his path won’t be easy. His college offense, which relied heavily on play-action, is a far cry from the NFL’s pro-style systems, and his tools aren’t as polished as those of Allen when he entered the league.

Still, the Giants aren’t rushing Dart. He’ll likely spend his rookie season developing behind the scenes, getting reps in low-pressure situations to build his instincts. Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen have both hinted at a carefully crafted plan, ensuring Dart has time to grow into the role. While there are questions about Dart’s mechanics and adaptability, one thing is clear: the Giants have a long-term vision for their young quarterback, and they’re ready to see it through.

Whispers in the Draft Room: Hunter, Sanders, and Banks Stir the Storm

April 21, 2025 RAYMOND 0

With the 2025 NFL Draft just days away, the Cleveland Browns are expected to select Travis Hunter, the versatile Colorado wide receiver and cornerback, with the second overall pick. Several sources have confirmed this potential move, which would clear the way for Penn State’s Abdul Carter to land with the Giants. Hunter, a reigning Heisman winner, has been clear about his desire to continue playing both ways at the NFL level, even suggesting he might sit out if forced into a single position. However, with the Browns’ apparent willingness to let him play both offense and defense, this dream could soon become a reality for Hunter.

In other draft news, Shedeur Sanders, Hunter’s teammate and quarterback at Colorado, has become one of the most polarizing figures in the draft process. Scouts are struggling to get an unbiased read on Sanders, with many attributing the challenge to the influence of his father, Deion Sanders, who also serves as his coach. Deion’s dual role as both a father and a Hall of Fame NFL player has made it difficult for NFL personnel to gain a clear understanding of Shedeur’s prospects.

NFL.com’s Adam Rank turned heads this week with a bold and unexpected prediction for the New York Giants. In his lone mock draft — which he doesn’t revise — Rank bypasses the usual suspects like Abdul Carter, Travis Hunter, or even a quarterback. Instead, he urges the Giants to take a swing at Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty, the top running back in the draft.

Rank explained on Mock Draft Live that this pick would be a symbolic move — a way to help Giants fans move on from Saquon Barkley’s departure to the rival Eagles. “You need a game-changer who will help the fans forget Saquon just won a Super Bowl with Philly,” Rank said. “Take Ashton now and let your fan base love again.”

Mystery Moves in Motion: Dolphins Host Johnson and Harmon Ahead of 2025 NFL Draft Shake-Up

April 12, 2025 RAYMOND 0

The Miami Dolphins are actively scouting tight end prospects for the 2025 NFL Draft, eyeing potential players who could be available with their second-round pick. Among the key prospects is Mason Taylor from LSU, the son of Dolphins legend Jason Taylor. Projected as a late first-round or early second-round pick, Taylor recently visited Miami, following meetings with the Browns, Seahawks, and Chargers. Additionally, the Dolphins hosted local talent Elijah Arroyo from the University of Miami, who impressed during his breakout season with the Hurricanes and at the Senior Bowl. With tight end Jonnu Smith’s contract expiring after this season, Miami could be looking to the future, with either Taylor or Arroyo potentially filling the TE2 role or becoming a long-term solution.

Meanwhile, running back Kaleb Johnson has been making waves in draft circles, visiting multiple teams including the Steelers, Titans, Broncos, Texans, and Bengals. Considered the third-best running back prospect in the class, Johnson is expected to be taken in the early to mid-second round. Additionally, defensive tackle Derrick Harmon from Oregon has been drawing attention, with visits to the Jets, Browns, and Steelers, and could be a late-first or early-second round selection depending on team needs.
