I've no idea of Daniels will be good in the NFL but......this is just crazy

What he's done in college football is absurd. The thing that always gets me when he scramble is how not only does he break off long runs but somehow, no one is fricking near him. His field vision must be ridiculous because the goes running right down the middle of the field for 30+ yards before someone is even really in a position to try to tackle him.
Then, even when he gets tackled, it's super rare for it to be anything more than a grab and pull down deal. Him actually getting HIT, like a real tackle, is so rare that when it happens I'm almost shocked.
Dude still throws occasional head scratcher balls that are much worse throws than his overall stats would lead you to expect. But, his passing is still light years better than when he arrived and, for the most part, he's developed into a legit passer. And yes, before you respond.......but the yards!!! I get it. But shite, I can't even imagine how one devises a secondary to properly cover passing routes when the damned QB is capable, almost whenever he feels like it, or ripping off 25 yards with his feet.
We've seen QBs who run but none have ever run as friggin freely as this guy. Against basically all defenses.
I hope he succeeds in the NFL, but if he doesn't, this shite was still worth it.

He glides like a gazelle. His running is effortless. Absolutely wild and then to put his passing together this year. Amazing.

I noticed last night that he seems to decide to run much earlier than when he actually takes off and almost directs the pocket and the defense to a position that allows for maximum efficacy when he does run.
He's really fricking good.

I agree with most of your post, but not this:
JD has gotten absolutely rocked throughout his time here. It’s been my (and I’d guess the coaching staff’s) biggest complaint about JD is that he is reckless with his well-being.

I am a lifelong Rams fan. Love to see them take him at number five.

I swear some of you have never watched football before. Even Tom Brady averaged more than one incompletion every three passes. I can’t fathom what you guys bitch about on a daily basis when you aren’t online criticizing things you don’t understand.

And a lot of guys run out of gas on a long run and get caught just shy of the goal line. Not Daniels, 85 yard sprint.
After the commercial break the camera showed him on the sideline and he was breathing normally, no signs whatsoever of having just run 85 yards at full speed and having played nearly three quarters of football.

It’s hard to respect both the deep ball and the qb run. Not many teams can do both. If JDs passing is on, his running benefits.

It’s insane to see what JD5 has evolved into. I was talking with someone last night about this, among the top dual threat QBs over the years in CFB…is Daniels the best?
I’m talking specifically the ones that were elite rushers - Lamar, Vick, Cam, Frazier, Young, etc. Daniels is deceptively fast and elusive, and I’d personally include him among best running QBs I’ve watched. Maybe not THE best mostly due to his size and attempts, but elite nonetheless.
The difference is many of these type of QBs are good, but not great passers. Typically there’s issues with accuracy, arm strength, turnover prone, or something. Daniels is head and shoulders above this though, and is also an elite passer! It’s simply incredible to watch.

His instincts, acceleration, and spatial awareness are what does it.
He always seems to have a feel of who’s around him and where he needs to go when he’s running. He must have crazy peripheral vision.
His top end speed is great, probably a 4.4 guy, and he gets to full speed in two steps.
He throws as well as any quarterback in college football with a quick release.
This makes him unreal to try and defend.
If we had an average defense, no doubt we win it all this year.

His passing is light years better than Lamar Jackson’s was coming out of college.

Not physical enough to withstand pro football.

He is a much better passer then RG3 but i fear he would get a knee tore up when he goes to NFL.
RG3 ran a lot that first year because he was comfortable running versus passing from pocket. Jayden will need to run as absolut last option and learn to slide.

Sorry but you’re gonna have to point to some specific throws because honestly this season Ive not seen very many (if any at all) passes that were terrible or so bad the WR didn’t have a chance. Unless he was just throwing it away, even his INTs are usually tipped or the DB just makes a great play (like McGlothern vs Arky)
Again im talking specifically about the 2023 season. Last year yes but he's been $$ this season from the jump w/maybe the exception of the 1st half of the FSU game.

The problem with Daniels is that he is too good a scrambler to ignore that, but if you do anything - I mean ANYTHING - to prevent his runs, he is a good enough pocket passer to exploit the pass defense weaknesses you created.
Spy him, and he will exploit the middle of the field behind the spy.
Cage rush and he will sit in the pocket and carve you up.
Blitz off the corner and he'll hit that hot read like easy money.
If I'm the NFL GM with the first overall pick I'm taking Jayden Daniels.
