Before the 2025 NFL Draft, if someone were to bet on the quarterback that the New York Giants would trade up to sign, it would have been Shedeur Sanders. But as it turned out, Brian Daboll & Co. pulled off a bold move by drafting Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart at No. 25 overall.

What’s even more astonishing is that a passionate Giants fan named Andrew predicted this strategy before the draft unfolded. His foresight and prediction were so eerily similar to reality that it left former NFL linebacker Will Compton and many others in disbelief.
The Bussin’ With The Boys crew recently hit the streets of Lambeau Field to indulge in a pre-draft discussion with the fans. That’s when they met Andrew, a devoted Giants fan with a can of beer in his hand.
Smelling good content, the podcast crew decided to chat with the Giants supporter and asked him to name the QB that his team will sign on the first day. He emphatically responded, “Jaxson… There’s a f***ing dart in your neck. Yes, sir.”
When questioned about the No. 3 pick, he suggested selecting linebacker Abdul Carter and then trading back into the first round to draft Dart. He elaborated, “Sign Abdul Carter [at 3], then trade back into the first round… We have two third-rounders, so you still have one third-rounder. You lose your second-rounder… Trade one of your thirds. All right, then you’re back into the first round.”
The surprise prediction turned out to be remarkably accurate. The Giants selected Abdul Carter at No. 3 and then traded their second-round pick (No. 34), a third-round pick (No. 99), and a 2026 third-rounder to the Houston Texans to move up to No. 25 and select Jaxson Dart.
Unsurprisingly, Will Compton, co-host of the podcast, was astounded by Andrew’s impeccable prediction. He posted the video on “X” with the following caption: “I still can’t believe this drunk Giants fan called the entire draft strategy last night. Get this man a job in the front office.”

Following an exciting first day of the draft, we can anticipate a similar experience over the next two days. Here are the remaining picks that Joe Schoen has in the 2025 NFL Draft to build on the epic first-round haul from yesterday:
- Round 3: No. 65
- Round 4: No. 105
- Round 5: No. 154 (from Seattle)
- Round 7: No. 219
- Round 7: No. 246 (from Buffalo)
Safe to say, the New York Giants are building a stellar team this season.
