Re: QB Prospects Thread
I'm on the Jayden Daniels bandwagon too. I think he will cement himself as our choice at his pro day. This young man is all about hard work and self improvement so I believe he'll show up weighing 200 pounds, run a 4.5 forty, make every throw in the NFL playbook and ace every interaction with the coaches and the Press. His ceiling as an NFL QB is sky high IMO.

Re: QB Prospects Thread
The whole QB prediction thing is overdone - the reality is that every expert and pundit has his or her views about the strengths and weaknesses of each of the top candidates but no one can predict how they’ll fare at the next level. The draft is enough of a crapshoot and so much depends on what these guys do when they get to the NFL. The same QB guru coached Tom Brady and JaMarcus Russell and said that Russell had the better physical gifts by far. And we know how that turned out.
I trust Peters and co. to get it right and really hope they do. But I won’t think they’re frauds if they don’t. I do want them to have contingencies, as the 9ers did with Purdy, and I suspect that they will. And MM isn’t that contingency. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: QB Prospects Thread
At this point, you're either fine w/ his weight or not drafting him because of it. Don't think many minds will change one way or another between now and April 25th.

Re: QB Prospects Thread
Patrick Mahomes has proven winning Super Bowls now is about being a playmaker more than ever at qb. The man already has 3 rings at a pretty young age with a lot of different receiver combinations. Mahomes is the primary reason for their success because he makes plays. All 3 of his Super Bowls he came back from a double digit deficit when a legitimate argument could be made that the other teams (49ers, Eagles) were the better team. Mahomes made the plays though and won the SBs for his Chiefs.
Jayden Daniels and Caleb Williams are the best playmakers in this draft and have unique skillsets that win games. I'm not saying they're Mahomes, but they make plays. Daniels production in big boy SEC football was incredible in that rough conference. Yes he may get hurt but he really hasn't yet. Maye or any other of these qbs can get hurt also. Unfair to say he can get hurt because he's fast or not as heavy as other qbs. |

Re: QB Prospects Thread
Really the only concern about Daniels is his weight. If his pocket presence is as good as his accuracy it's not a big deal. He will take hits, as long as he can avoid most of them we're good.
I'm leaning more towards Daniels than Maye - Maye looks good physically but everybody says Daniels is the better player. Take the guy who can play football.

Re: QB Prospects Thread
Pretty crazy how tight lipped this front office is, we really have no idea which way they are leaning. Seems that more experts have us taking Maye, so because of that I'll say it will be Daniels. Either way I like the potential of both guys at #2 and won't hate it either way.

Any chance it is because they don’t want NE to know who they prefer because they are thinking trade back one spot with the Pats, giving the Pats first choice? If the Pats know we prefer Maye for example and the Pats prefer JD it would not make sense to move up one spot. But if the Pats prefer one or the other and want to make sure they get him than they might be willing to move into that second spot. |

Re: QB Prospects Thread
Really think the weight thing with Daniels is overblown. He definitely needs to add some bulk to his frame, shouldn't be hard for him to add 10-15 lbs of good weight in the next few years.

Re: QB Prospects Thread
RG3 ptsd.
I love Daniels. I think he'll be very good in the NFL. I just worry about the hits he'll take. Also, Staubach, Carmichael, Cunningham, etc were playing against 210# linebackers and 250# defensive lineman. Not really comparable.
