Its not rocket science. Its all about the timing.

- Get injured in the bowl game
- Ruin draft process
- Lose at best 1-2 rounds of draft position and millions of dollars

Daniels has a shot at being QB3 top 10 overall. The cost-benefit does not favor playing.

That said, i hope he plays enough to get record and secure victory.

There are times in life where you act in order to prevent the worst case scenario.

And from LSU’s perspective what really can be better than a top ten qb draft pick?

Securing victory with LSU defense in the mix means Jayden will definitely have to play the entire game.

But you are just making this up.

Yeah, I still see the NFL drafting on talent alone every single year. It just takes one team. A healthy QB that would be picked in the top 10 is just not at much risk of the NFL not taking a chance in him. A guy that is at best a 5th round pick? That’s a different situation.

I’m not diminishing the cost-benefit analysis that needs to be done or questioning the individual for doing what is right for them. I just don’t see the NFL being very scared off by most injuries sustained during a football game these days. Depends on the plate and their needs.

I think someone is far more likely to hurt his draft stock by doing something stupid off the field while they are away from football than sustaining an injury.

or you can spin it and both play great in the bowl game and have all the momentum going into the Pro Day and it helps them become the 1st player pick at each of their positions. Another strong game by Jayden could seriously put him in the conversations as the #1 pick.
