**Giants’ Quarterback Carousel: Schoen and Daboll’s Bold Plan for the Future**
**EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.** – Following a disastrous 3-win season, the New York Giants’ General Manager Joe Schoen and Coach Brian Daboll convinced ownership to give them another shot by laying out a comprehensive plan to overhaul the quarterback position. The plan includes a mix of veteran experience and a potential future star.
The Giants explored nearly every avenue this offseason to upgrade at quarterback, from inquiring about veteran starters like Matthew Stafford and Aaron Rodgers, to considering free agents Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, and evaluating top draft prospects. Ultimately, the Giants signed Wilson and Winston, retained Tommy DeVito, and traded back into the first round to select Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart with the 25th overall pick. The pursuit of Stafford went so far that the Giants were ready to offer upwards of $50 million per year, before the quarterback ultimately decided to stay with the Rams. A dalliance with Aaron Rodgers also failed to materialize, before the Giants turned their focus to Wilson and Winston.
Wilson is expected to start this season, with Winston providing a veteran backup. However, the selection of Dart signifies a long-term investment. Coaches were impressed with Dart after meeting at the Senior Bowl and Manning Passing Academy. Dart’s work ethic and command of the playbook gave him an edge over other draft prospects.
While the Giants reportedly would have traded up for Jayden Daniels or Drake Maye if possible, they are now pinning their hopes on Dart to develop into the franchise quarterback they desperately need. The team believes that if Dart develops as hoped, the move could be the ace in the hole that saves Schoen and Daboll’s jobs.
