Not just like Alex Smith who would run for 7 yards on 2nd and 10. But like for 35 yards and deep into opposing territory. That and the ability to throw deep with accuracy and avoid turnover worthy plays, he looks legit to me.

I hate to compare College to NFL but JD5 looks like a better passing Lamar Jackson.. We've seen what Lamar can do as a 2 time MVP... I like Maye alot and think he could be a good one but I feel Daniels is the safer more sure thing pick.

Yeah Daniels just has it in him to randomly flip the field on a scramble where he rips off 40 yards. He is likely to do that 1-2 times a game, which for a team that will likely have a lot of stalled drives will mean 1-2 more scoring chances per game.

That said, I feel like this is a really nice problem to have because when I watch Maye I feel like I'm watching Justin Herbert.

What separates Daniels from Maye for me is Maye sails some easy passes sometimes. I didn't see Daniels do that very much. And then the threat with the legs I've already mentioned.

But if we ended up with either one I think we're looking at a franchise guy. I think there are 3 franchise level QBs in this draft and we pick 2nd. Finally, we're in the right place at the right time. Haven't been able to say that about QBs and the draft at any point in my adult life.

Yeah I agree 100%. Some say Maye is like Josh Allen but I tend to lean towards the Herbo comparison too. Very simialt players, Maye is prob a bit more mobile than Herbert.

Overall I'm fine with either but still prefer JD

I've also seen him compared to Andrew Luck . . . definitely wouldn't mine a young Andrew Luck coming on board!!

Luck is the last college QB that I would have bet the farm on. If that player shows up, I say bet the farm.
