Where will JD5 get drafted?

He's staying another year Baw! Kelly found a rare loophole that gave him another year eligibility. Nuss on the bench for another season!

Scouts are waking up to how much he has developed into a great passer. I think he can be a first rd draft pick. Jayden is the type of athletic QB that can shine at the combines. An NFL team will fall in love with him. I'll say this if Anthony Richardson can be the 4th pick Daniels can be a first round pick.

Most likely 2R - don't think teams will expect him to come in and start Y1

Yeah call me biased but if Richardson went #4 I don’t see how Daniels couldn’t go #1. I get the Richardson hype about his “raw ability” but Daniels has been this season what everyone thinks Richardson has the ability to become. Daniels is deadly accurate on all levels of throws, can run when needed, and rarely makes a mistake throwing the ball.

Probably second round, but if he stays hot, wins the Heisman or finishes second or third he could go first round. It only takes one team to fall in love with you. Vikings are my pick for who picks him up.

There are going to be alot of good qbs drafted in this draft. I would love to see him get drafted high, but I would just rather that he ends up in a good situation for himself with a good organization.

Vikings Saints Broncos is my short list for him.

He'll be drafted. Probably not in the first round though. However, that probably has more to do with the fact this is seen as strong QB draft class

I disagree with this. I think he is the second QB taken, if not the first.

I disagree with this. The kid is too small right now to start in NFL. He will need to get on the beans and the weight room.

Richardson is 6'4, 245 lbs who can run and has an absolute cannon in terms of arm strength. I wouldn't have taken him that high, but he has exceptionally rare physical traits. His peak is peak Cam Newton. And that was in a draft where there was probably no consensus #1 QB. Many had concerns Young is too small...even though he was the most polished. There were also concerns about Stroud coming out of OSU. A lot of QBs get pushed way up the board due to supply and demand.

This year's draft looks to have a lot more "supply". Caleb Williams is seen as the clear #1 prospect. Drake Maye has the prototypical physical traits NFL teams like. Then you have guys like Sanders, Penix, Ewers who are bigger than Daniels.

I think Daniels being sub 200 lbs (even though he is listed as heavier) is one concern. Also, I don't know if NFL scouts love him as a passer as much as the other guys. IMO, the team that drafts him has to see a Lamar Jackson type player. A tremendous runner who has some questions with size and as a passer. Baltimore decided to tailor their offense to fit Jackson...and it has been VERY successful. If a team out there is willing to do so with Daniels he could be very good. If they are going to try to force him to be Josh Allen, I don't think that works for him.

Late first round ala some recent names that may ring a bell, Lamar Jackson (JD’s closest pro comp IMO) and Jalen Hurts
