Landing spot is crucial for rookie quarterbacks, often dictating their early career success more than raw talent alone. In the 2025 NFL Draft, 13 quarterbacks found themselves in various situations impacting their potential. Jaxson Dart's move to the New York Giants offers developmental support under Brian Daboll, while Tyler Shough in New Orleans may have to navigate a shaky offensive line despite a talented receiving corps. Cam Ward with the Tennessee Titans benefits from a solid offensive line and a capable backfield.

Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders face a competitive environment in Cleveland with an underperforming offense. Jalen Milroe with the Seattle Seahawks possesses rushing prowess but needs development, while Will Howard's situation with the Pittsburgh Steelers hinges on Aaron Rodgers' decision. Lastly, Riley Leonard fits well in Indianapolis' RPO-heavy system, providing opportunities for growth.
