I'm sure there will be a lot of fans of this mock draft. I know I would be pumped if this is how things played out. Here's the top 5
1. CHI - Caleb Williams QB USC
2. WAS - Drake Maye QB UNC
3. NE - Marvin Harrison Jr WR Ohio State
4. ARI - Malik Nabers WR LSU
5. LAC - Joe Alt OT Notre Dame

Daniel Jeremiah Mock 2.0 - (
New Window )
That said, I don’t see Pats passing on a QB.
There is going to be a QB with a very high grade there for us at 6.
That said, I don’t see Pats passing on a QB.
I would agree, although there have been rumblings about NE trying to get a vet. I think that is foolish given their draft position in a historically good QB class.

Unless they don't love QB3. Everyone has been assuming they're going to take a QB simply to take a QB, but it's possible they don't like QB3 and MHJr is ranked much higher.
4 QBs in top 8.
Interesting.
He isn't just going to fall into our laps at #6.

He might. He has some serious concerns.

Yep, most likely. One of 4 QBs, Harrison, or BPA of the rest if the prior 5 are gone worst case: so top OL (i hope not), top defensive player, 2nd best WR
1. Chi builds around Fields most likely trading with Washington to get a haul of picks and MHJ
2. Patriots sign Kirk Cousins (possible if Kraft wants to win asap)
3. JJ McCarthy goes in the top 3 QBs. I could see the Patriots surprising everyone with a move like this.
4. NFL is less high on Maye or Daniels than projected to be.
I see those as the only ways in which Maye or Daniels slides to 4-6. Maybe a 25-30% chance? Word is Chicago is going to make a decision on whether or not to accept trade offers for Fields sooner than later. Obviously, they could keep Fields and draft QB but if they keep Fields I think it's more likely they will build around him. Free agency will be telling as well, does Kirk Cousins resign in Minnesota or where does he go?
Very pivotal draft we have here.
If he lights up the combine with a 95+ ras score, 40 in 4.4s, sub 7 second 3 cone, up near top velocity, throws impeccably and interviews perfectly I could see it. I'd be good with any of the top 4 QBs, it's a crapshoot like Eric says so hopefully we just get lucky on one of the 4.
I think Cousins?
I could see teams being scared of Daniels size, one year wonder, and played with 2 first round picks a future high pick at TE with a solid o line so you don't see a lot of NFL window throws on his tape. There are definitely ways in which he could slide, I say this with hope and optimism because I absolutely love his game.
He isn't just going to fall into our laps at #6.
Good point. I wouldn't be surprised if Team Caleb tries to manipulate their way out of Chicago. That organization is on stilts. I could see Daniels/Maye going to the Bears because they may be more willing to sign. And those are excellent consolation prizes...

No way. Williams has no leverage. And it looks like between CHI, WAS and NE, the Bears are the best landing spot.

The Bears roster is years ahead of ours currently, I don't see that happening unless he is scared of playing in the elements. Chicago is in the playoff hunt with tons of cap room.
I was hoping Frazier would be available in second round for Giants but he is really rising fast .
Combine is going to be so interesting for McCarthy.
I must admit I didn’t watch any LSU games this year. Not a fan of Kelly.

Very scary thought here. The bears roster is actually better. After the draft, assuming the redskins take Maye, could the NYG really have the worst roster in the NFC? Or 2nd worst to Arizona?

Arizona is better than the Giants. They have a QB, we don't.

Panthers, Giants and Cardinals, but if we hit on qb finally it all turn around imo

Carolina would be pretty hard to top.

Hard to argue Carolina. That being said, this is likely without a doubt one of the 3-5 worst rosters in the league and will likely continue to be that. Very scary thinking about how far away we are. It’s one thing to be a young team. The Packers are a young team, the youngest in the league actually. But they’re very good. We are young and bad..
Daniels Dig - ( New Window )
Then get the trade down up to 3 asap. Remove any doubt of another team jumping NYG.

That suggest the Pats may not end up taking a QB

If they want Maye or Daniels they will have to trade up I’d imagine. I’ve heard New England isn’t high on Maye or Daniels but I take the source with a grain of salt because of their conflict of interest
Needs to run a lot to make a impact imv. I prefer a QB who excels from the pocket but I can see where BD would like his style.
That said, I don’t see Pats passing on a QB.
I don’t either but not everyone is going to have these QBs ranked 1/2/3. They may not like Daniels, I’m sure a bunch of teams won’t like QBs 2-5 (the first round guys) for various reasons.

Maybe, but I doubt more pissed than when Dave took Jones…
Because it would be a disaster of a decision.
Annoyed...try apoplectic.
The NYG have the worst QB Unit in the league, yet expensive, injured and uncertain for the start of the 2024 season.
Passing on a top prospect like Jayden Daniels in the situation this team is in at the QB position would be akin to saying we have a contagious mental disease running through the building at 1925 NY Giants Drive.
I wouldn't like it, especially at #6. But then it's up to Daboll.
Since McCarthy played under Harbaugh, and apparently is this strong leader with a good football mind, he should play in 2024. And hopefully start.

I don't get the size concerns with Daniels but nobody brings them up with McCarthy. And don't tell me McCarthy is 2 years younger so he can add weight. It isn't about weight. As has been pointed out by our Giants, it is about bone to muscle ratio. They both have small frames. Adding weight to small frames is more of an issue than being lighter.
They may really like the idea of MHJ+Nix or Pennix, there is merit to that idea

I think Michigan doesn't embelish weight and height like LSU does. And age definitely is a factor, JJ was 6'3 190 as a recruit while Daniels was 6'3 175 as a recruit for instance.

No matter how you try to slice it, they are both thin and both should be a concern. Choosing one over the other shows bias.
I want no part of Daniel’s. He will not be a good pro. He’s got a great offensive line. Throwing to nabers and Thomas and hes been in college as long as penix. No thank you. Give me Maye or McCarthy. I’d love rattler round 3 I think he has the tools to work with and he’s sneaky athletic. Plus arm talent for sure

Well Daniels is my top ranked QB personally but i think JJ's weight is less of a concern than Daniels. I think Daniels will have to work a lot harder to maintain a Weight close to 225 than JJ would. And that isn't out of a bias for JJ, because Daniels has been my favorite QB of the bunch since last October.
