Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart has a long-standing relationship with New York Giants legend Eli Manning, who he calls a role model.

In the case of ESPN's Mina Kimes, Ward remains the top prospect at this stage in the process, and that isn't changing anytime soon

Analysts have focused their attention on what the Cleveland Browns will do with their second overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, specifically

The upcoming NFL Draft seemingly has two first-round quarterback talents (with some love as well for Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart), Colorado's Shedeur Sanders, and Miami's Cam Ward. ESPN thinks the Jets will get one.

Dart was one of the best players in college football last season, throwing for 4,279 yards and 29 touchdowns (both top-10 marks in the NCAA). He has shown flashes of good decision-making and accuracy, posting a 69.3% completion percentage for the Rebels in 2024.

"With Aaron Rodgers on the way out, the Jets could end up finding another veteran in a trade or free agency to take over as their starting quarterback," PFN wrote. "That said, don’t rule out them targeting a young quarterback as their heir apparent."

Jaxson Dart has seen his stock rise throughout the draft process, and the former Ole Miss signal-caller said he looks to resemble Jalen Hurts' game.

Jaxson Dart has never lacked confidence, but he says intangibles separate him from the rest of the quarterbacks in this draft class.

Dart broke multiple records at Ole Miss, and in 2024, he threw for 4,279 yards and 29 touchdowns alongside just six interceptions. He is set to throw at the NFL Combine this week, and he has already attracted the attention of multiple NFL pundits leading up to the draft.

An anonymous general manager reportedly believes Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart could leapfrog Colorado's Shedeur Sanders for QB2 in the draft.
