Now that we know Jaxson Dart is the guy for the New York Giants, it's vital that the team does everything necessary to put him in a position to succeed.

One thing the Giants should consider doing to help is adding another wide receiver to pair with Malik Nabers. After all, Wan'Dale Robinson will be a free agent in 2026, and Big Blue needs a better No. 2 option than Darius Slayton.

Knowing that, USA TODAY's Ayrton Ostly predicts the Giants will take Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 draft.

"New York's priorities under a new coaching staff should be protecting Jaxson Dart and adding more weapons to his arsenal. At this point in the draft, Tyson is a better option than the offensive linemen on the board. New York's getting an impressive route-runner who can stress defenses focusing on Malik Nabers," Ostly wrote.

With so many holes to fill, it might be tough for New York to take a wide receiver in this spot, especially when they've already got a highly-drafted No. 1 in Nabers, but Tyson would be a worth a swing in this spot if there are no better options.

Tyson, who has tallied 628 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in seven games, is a dynamic weapon in that he's good at all three levels of the field and can line up anywhere.

The Arizona State star is a menace in the short-to-intermediate areas with his route-running and yards-after-catch ability, but he can also beat defensive backs down the field with his speed, and Tyson is good with contested catches.

A pairing of Tyson and Nabers would give Dart a potentially-elite duo for several years to come and that would offer a huge boost for his development.
