Chase Daniel talks about being a Saint - Video (2 Viewers)

He seems like a competitive guy who wants to play in the NFL and has confidence that he can. Other than the height, I don't think he's going to be mistaken for Drew Brees. I actually think the better comparison may be Tony Romo, and that could be what Sean Payton sees in him, seeing as Payton kind of groomed Romo in Dallas... with regard to athleticism and a similar type of demeanor (I'm not a Romo fan, but he's a very personable guy and confident player).

If he picks up Brees' habits (he seems to be able to grasp the mental part of the position), he'll become a pretty consistent QB.

*Definitely a better prospect than Tyler Palko, IMO.

Is it just me or does he seem to be kinda full of himself? Talking less maybe a good thing for this kid.

People full of themselves in the NFL?

He had a mic in his face so he was obligated to speak. He has swagger but I don't think he's having champagne coolies with Chad Johnson. He is aware he is goona be on the PS. How

full of himself

can he be?

I really like this pick up but honestly who knows if Daniel will ever be more than a PS player or career backup (Todd Bouman will tell you it's an excellent way to make a living)? The team has needed a young "project QB" since Tyler Palko flopped. Joey Harrington isn't young and a failed project so any move for a guy with some upside and is eligible for the Practice Squad is a good move........

...and as I tell people at work, having just Brunell behind Drew makes me order an extra cup of coffee every morning....
not a solid football decision.

its a typical attitude of a guy who has dominated at the the previous level....he's got talent, intelligence, and is articulate. good traits for that position. his height is his only downfall but translates into a chip on his shoulder....so great acquisition
