Jayden Daniel’s in LSU’s offense is having an amazing season. He’s ridiculous in the red zone and has only thrown one interception this year. We already run his plays in the form of Taysom Hill’s set of plays. He runs the QB power and the read option as good as anyone. He has good arm talent but will need to put less air on some throws in the NFL.
But I think he fits the Saints offense well, not just the QB power game but also the timing plays.
He’s not projected to go high, he’s not even projected to go in the first 3 rounds, but that could change with more success. Still he’s worth a pick IMO. I would take him in the second round just to make sure we get a QB.
Even if he doesn’t turn out to be a full time starter we have a replacement for Taysom.
All the LSU fans always want us to draft their guys. How would y’all feel about us drafting Daniels?
