I don't see Daniels in the same way.

Agreed Jaden runs more like Cunningham and Lamar vs RG3 did, and he actually knows how to slide.

If he can't or won't learn how to slide, I don't want him.

RG3's "I'm as tough as anybody on the field and I'll fight for every yard" mentality ruined his entire career. The best ability is availability.

True, luckily jaden does know how to slide, he's taken a couple hits but its football everyone who runs will get hit at some point, he is much better laterally than RG3 was too

Well from what I've seen Daniels one of the criticisms of Daniels is he doesn't protect himself while running (Which means he is more like RG3.

RG3 simply wasn't able to protect himself. Daniels has the capability, he just has to be smarter about what hits you can take in the NFL. And when it's possibly worth the risk or not. There's a difference between the two.

RG3 couldnt, Ive seen Daniels protect himself and slide. In Daniels career, I have seen him take 3 hits that were like, that was a hard one.

2 were blindsides and the one against Ole Miss he had just gotten away from a defender and his teammate missed a block and he got smacked

I saw him take one that looked exactly like RG3's Baltimore hit. In fact I watched the whole compilation of his runs and often times he was pushing for that extra yard and I didn't see him slide once in those clips.

The brass is meeting with McCarthy tonight for dinner before pro day tomorrow.
I’m hearing more about Vikings wanting to trade up for Maye.

We may(e) end up with a haul of picks, a second tier QB like McCarthy or Penix. I’m also hearing Justin Jefferson is in play. 👀

I know a lot of you are enamored with Daniels and Maye. I’m not sure there’s a whole lot of drop off between them and Penix and McCarthy. Sprinkle in 2 #1s, 2#2s and JJ, I’ll take it in a heartbeat.

The last thing I want is a running QB. Yes be able to get out of pocket to avoid pressure, be athletic and be able to make plays off script.

You must win from the pocket passing the ball.

Don’t be what happened to Anthony Richardson last year, all that does is bring us back to square one.

You can give Lamar Jackson the top scoring defense in the league AND a top five running game. Every god damn year in the playoffs defensive coordinator do the samething “beat me from the pocket Lamar” and he comes up short.

Pass that type of player

I'd take a pick haul from Minnesota, why not. Not sold on the top 3 qbs so I would take a worth while trade

There's a huge drop off between the top 3 and the rest otherwise they'd be talked about in the same class as the other 3.

I am committed to accepting the front office's decision

All fans should repeat this affirmation to themselves in the morning, at lunch and in the evening.


We have grown up football people making grown up decisions. Can they be wrong, yes, but they have earned the chance to make This specific decision.

I thought our next swing at a franchise QB was something that warranted it's own thread. We get it right/lucky, we're gucci, and winning a Super Bowl when RFK is our home/future home stadium.

I'm on the J.D. hype train still (McCarthy is my official No. 2 now though):



I can't see YouTube (on this site) on my phone or computer anymore. I have no idea if I posted this properly.

I like McCarthy too. Pro system and was consistent.
I’m just not a fan of Maye. Maybe he’s too similar to Howell. Inconsistent on throws and can’t read defenses according to Kurt Warner.
