It all adds up to this: If Wilson struggles early against a brutal schedule (Commanders, Cowboys, Chiefs, Chargers), Daboll could turn to Dart sooner rather than later, as the hot-seat coach tries to keep his job.

The Giants set up their QB room this offseason to give Dart time to learn. They signed two veterans, Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston. Then they traded back into the first round to take the quarterback Dart out of Ole Miss with the No. 25 overall pick. With Wilson and Winston, the Giants have no reason to rush Dart.
