Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Jaxson Dart

Wednesday, April 9, 1:13 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray said that he feels like he needs to run more in 2025 and is open to running more next season. "It's such a weapon," Murray said. The 27-year-old two-time Pro Bowler and former Offensive Rookie of the Year ran the ball 78 times for 572 yards (7.3 yards per carry) and five touchdowns in 17 starts in 2024. His 572 rushing yards ranked fourth in the league behind Lamar Jackson, Jayden Daniels and Jalen Hurts, with his five TDs tying him for sixth-most in the NFL. As a passer, Murray completed 68.8% of his 541 pass attempts for 3,851 yards, 21 touchdowns and 11 touchdowns. Overall, he finished as the QB10 in fantasy scoring, and his elite rushing ability should continue to give him a high floor as a low-end QB1. If he makes good on his promise to run more in 2025, he could end up being even more of a value pick at the position in fantasy drafts this fall.

The New York Giants eventually expect rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart to be their starting QB and the face of their franchise, but they won't put any pressure on him to be their QB1 before they feel he is ready for the job. Until then, the coaching staff will try to do everything they can to help the 21-year-old signal-caller become the best QB he can be. "He's got the makings of a good quarterback, and there's a long way to go. There's a developmental process that he's going to have to go through. Again, these offenses are not easy to learn, and the execution has to be at a high level," general manager Joe Schoen said. When rookie minicamp starts this Friday, Dart will merely be looking to get comfortable with the offensive scheme. Russell Wilson is going to start the year under center in New York, and depending on how the season goes, Dart could sit and learn all year.
