He’s says scouts will go crazy over Caleb and Maye but Jayden could be the guy in this draft class.

I agree. Daniels made so many NFL throws into tight windows this year. His improvement has been remarkable.

Would love to see a team try and get Nabers & Daniels. I think only the Bears could do it tho

I don't see a facet of Caleb Williams game that is better than Daniels

But obviously Daniels is a better runner than CW

The one hesitancy I'd have with Daniels is his hesitancy. He doesn't throw may interceptions. Which is GREAT. But he also choses to not make throws and just tuck an run probably more often than NFL teams would like. He's not going to be able to run for 150 yards per game in the NFL. And with the game speed faster and the windows tighter his decision making has to be quicker.

He improved significantly in that respect this season. But there were still some times he probably had guys open and he chose to be a bit more hesitant and hold the ball.

Obviously he can escape the pocket. His accuracy, even last year, is very good (he doesn't miss guys very often). His arm strength is good enough. Can he consistently make the split-second decisions a great QB is required to make time and time again in the NFL? The great QBs often know where they are going with the ball before it is snapped or see the windows opening before they actually open. Once they see it they let the ball fly without hesitation.

After the Bama game I posted that Jayden will be the No.1 pick.
Board proceeded to laugh me out the chat.
Nevertheless.

Jayden is gonna shred this draft process to pieces.

He is 100% correct. Would you pass up on JD5 if you needed a QB in the draft. Hell no !

Great clip. A shame Herbstreit had to put up with that douchebag next to him.

Kirk is right. Kirk is also a bitch.

I’ve been saying for weeks that JD should be #1. Anyone who passes on him will regret it. He is as good a pick as Joe Burrow, and that’s saying a lot.

He is a hell of a lot more accurate passer than I remember Lamar Jackson being in college, and Lamar is doing pretty ok in the NFL.

Saints need him more than any other team. good defense and a JD5 offense instead of the bums they presently have could make them a big winner.

Herb is an idiot. He’s THE guy. Not a steal.

I hope he’s taken high but I can see how he falls.

He’s thin and takes some big hits. The likelyhood of injury in the NFL is high with bigger, faster defenders

I really don't get the love for Drake Maye. Might give you a great game here or there, but I haven't seen much consistency out of him.

NFL teams are like women who date 'bad boys.' They think they can change the guy.
