FOLLOW THE DAMN PICK STICKER

This blew up because a trade the Giants made on April 24, 2025 finally printed its last receipt a year later, when the Bears used No. 69 on Stanford tight end Sam Roush on April 24, 2026. nbcsports.com The original swap sent No. 25 to New York for No. 34, No. 99, and a 2026 third, letting the Giants draft Jaxson Dart while Houston loaded up on extra picks. nbcsports.com Houston used No. 34 on Jayden Higgins, flipped No. 99 in a move up for Aireontae Ersery, and the Raiders ultimately spent that 99th pick on Charles Grant. houstontexans.com Then the 2026 third-rounder pinballed from Houston to Buffalo to Tennessee to Chicago before becoming Roush, which is why fans are treating this thing like a draft trade tree, a crime board, and an ancestry chart at the same time. buffalobills.com People care because this isn’t just bookkeeping; it reopens the “was Dart worth the price?” debate, and his rookie line of 12 starts, 63.7% completions, 15 touchdowns, and five interceptions gave Giants fans enough hope to yell “absolutely” before the final branch even settled. bigblueview.com
