Let me preface this with me explaining that I believe Caleb Williams is far and away the best QB prospect in this draft. However, I’m trying to get bold here. Let’s travel back in time with me to 2020, when LSU’s Joe Burrow was thought to have been behind the likes of Justin Herbert and Tua Tagovailoa in his draft class, before his incredible final stretch of the season cemented himself the Heisman award and eventual QB1 slot. Sound familiar? Jayden Daniels this past season broke an FBS record for passer rating (208) and yards per attempt (11.7) for a season. A true dual threat, he also led college football in yards per carry this season as well and did all of this in a grueling SEC schedule. I understand the NFL is more of a traits than production league, but standing in at 6’4” with his athleticism and a frame that can be built upon, I think teams could sell themselves on the prospects of Daniels being in the same conversation at the QB position with Caleb Williams and Drake Maye.
