Pick Jayden Daniels (KISS).

I have a feeling there are a going to be a lot of disappointed people on here.... simple is relative. The people making the decisions have far more expertise than the increasing group of fans who have convinced themselves that JD is the best QB ever. This site is going to be unbearable if they don't pick JD.

I don't think I'll be disappointed with the pick on April 25th. Maybe by November 25th I'll be disappointed...who knows.

The armchair GM that I am wants Jayden Daniels, but I'll be happy with whoever they pick - knowing that they had a process, stuck to it, and picked who they think is the best QB, and the best fit.

But yeah, you're not wrong. No matter who it is, there are plenty who won't be happy.

no drake maye pro day feedback?

nonniey · 03-28-2024, 11:30 PM

Did the Skins meet separately with Daniels prior to his pro day like they did with Maye?

As I understand it Daniels didn't have any meetings before his work out so he met a number of teams afterwards but it can't have been for too long as they all would have had to move on to Carolina for Mayes workout. They will have them all in for visits so I don't think it is that critical one way or the other

The great thing is either Maye or Daniels will be in WSH

I would say great depends on how the journey ends, not how it begins. Good if we draft a top 3 QB, great if he turns out to be the answer.

Commanders offer No. 2 to the Chargers for Justin Herbert, Harbaugh then uses the No. 2 pick to get his guy J.J. McCarthy.

That would be wild!

Note - This didn't actually happen, just something that popped in my head reading an article that includes the Chargers.

I have thought about this as well and would be happy as hell with it

I'm not sure I'd take Herbert with a straight swap for the #2. Great 1st 2 seasons, but last 2 were average. OK, that's likely not all on him, but with a new contract on the horizon where he'll be expecting top money, I think the Chargers could end up with the much better side of that deal.

That’s crazy talk - if this were an option, of course we should do it. Herbert is a proven commodity and the draft has no sure bets (see, eg, RG3 and Chase Young, also picked at the 2 slot). There are many other examples. And we have a good cap position now too so we would make it work.

Having said that, I don’t imagine it would be an option. Harbaugh talking up his former QB is one thing. Trading Herbert for a draft pick is another.
