Yeah, probably less if it was Maye, but just because this board happens to be more pro-Maye, there are other parts of the fan base that are more pro-Daniels. Depends what part of the cohort you're associating with. But yeah, after Williams (and even he has a ton of haters), there's no prospect that had overall close to universal support and with Caleb, that's even true, but w/our fanbase in particular there's a set that's just terrified of RGIII and an even larger set that just see's a lot of alarming pieces in his profile, there was never gonna be consensus on him until he kills it and sustains it in the NFL and flames out horribly. Hopefully its the former. I can see that happening. 

I am kinda confused on this sorta take. I've seen it from a few skeptics. I guess its: "what's done is done," can't change it. But? My eval of him is my eval of him, I can't pretend I think he's better than Maye just because we selected him. I do not....so maybe we're kind of just talking across each other. I mean, I'm all in on the idea that hopefully I'm totally wrong. But I also haven't changed my opinion at all. If I'm wrong, he'll show me that I am, and I won't indulge in take lock, once I'm persuaded, but I'm definitely not all in on him as the #2 guy in the class, I had him #3 or #4, not sure which as I keep going back and forth. 

Well I am very glad you were not the one making the pick last night.

After seeing those shirt,s with the live arm that Daniels has... how long before he gets the nick name
Jayden 5, He's alive
With a picture of him and the Short Circuit robot Johnny Five on it

Outstanding

Y’all are gonna love this guy. He’s going to put in all the work to be the best too. Takes feedback and handles criticism well. Just gotta keep him protected and tell him to slide slide slide!

Cooper DeJean would be a home run. 

Load up on oline and CBs today please

None of those are what anyone refers to by "winner" and you know it. 

Yet JJ is heralded by some on this board for being a winner and his competitive spirit. Which is it? I can’t keep up.

I feel like this board is more negative on the Daniels pick than it was when Haskins was drafted. That's insane to me.

Right? It’s wild. The tune will change soon enough, it’s ok.
 

What’s up with the Bayou Bob shot in the title? Randall or not, doubt Maye would’ve got the tongue in cheek thread title. 

Meh(maye) whatever.

And both are fools gold

yeah right. Be excited we have a true franchise QB in forever! Jayden is that dude. 

Y’all are gonna love our new QB!

Wowowowow Penix to the Falcons. 
 

warhead/socal join me on this JD5 journey. Y’all are gonna love this guy. He is that dude. 

Guys, one last thing to add.  I couldn’t stand JD5 his first year at LSU. Was ready to run him off. Terrible reads, wanted to run. Coaches got in his ear told him what he needed to improve…and guess what…

Well, many of us have been through all that and more. Of course, we all hope you're right. But you can't successfully push your surety to those who quite rationally don't have it.

 

Best that those who are not all joyous can do is try to be optimistic and give due appreciation for JD's very real skillset.

 

It's obviously his survivability that's of concern to the large majority of those who worry about the pick.

 

It's def gonna be awhile, well into the season, for the concerned to build up confidence that he won't break like balsa wood in the NFL.

 

Also, if he wins games it will help a lot. 😛

Jumbo, all I can is enjoy the show baby! He is going to charge this fanbase up to new levels.

This comment wins the thread.

Thank you brother, another OG. Listen LSU offense was a joke for so many years. I know what bad Qb play looks like.

I want to believe.

I am so hyped. He will be the face of DC in 2 years. This board is going to love him. Yeah we have some haters right now but that’s ok. I was a hater of him after the first season, but he literally improved upon everything the coaches grilled him on. 

Please don’t buy any commies jerseys it’s a ridiculous pitiful name. But a story for another threads

LOL

Laugh all you want. When he is dicing up Chicago at home this season you’re going to be like dang, that random poster wasn’t kidding. 

Guys I’ve been here through Gus, Danny, Campbell, Ramsey, dead arm Brunell, RG3 tearing his knee up 14-0 vs Seattle, Dwayne, etc. JD5 is our guy. 

JD5 will be that dude for us.

Gents, y’all are going to love this guy! We got our franchise dude!  I am so stoked.

Caleb is going to join Jamarcus on the first level of bust hall of fame. Yikes. 

I still believe Ramsey would’ve been badass behind an actual oline too.

If Maye played for LSU would you be pulling for him to be the #2 pick?

I was a huge JD5 hater his first season. He wouldn’t trust the receivers and would pull it down and break off for a run when he had the open man. He showed flashes of what he could be against Florida and Bama his first season. I took him to win the Heisman after the second game of last season because he just looked completely different. I’ve experienced a lot of **** QB play between LSU and the Skins. Burrow and Daniels are the two best I’ve seen. He is going to be elite. 

JD5 is gumby, bendable not breakable. The one shot that knocked him out of a game was a cheap shot by Dallas Turner, a future top 10 pick. And again…a cheap shot.
