In all fairness his agent and publicist haven’t really said anything either. Everything people are upset about is perceived and interpreted through multiple other people (that we have previously called idiots and paid to make noise) and we are taking it and running with it. I haven’t seen anything from Jayden Daniels that says he is a horrible fit. I know a lot of you want it to be so, so it is. But I personally have no seen it. I follow all that by saying I don’t want him drafted here because I know what y’all will do his entire career and a few month of it is fun, a few years is draining. I don’t care if he is more talented, he doesn’t fit this fan base for sure and that’s enough for me.

None of this is new. If people don’t want to like a guy they are going to read into whatever they have to to justify that feeling. And then be loud about it. Hard to argue that isn’t human nature. Daniels is not the first guy this has happened to and he won’t be the last. He will have to deal with it.

I know we have previously called these guys idiots but they also like Maye ALOT. Making all the comparisons y’all have made (which makes the idiot thing kinda funny) about John Allen. They like him better at reading defenses pre snap too, it sounds. They never say it but it sounds like they are a step away. They like everything we like about him. And they don’t call him a project.

I don’t think there is a good comp for him coming out. I don’t think we have ever seen an above average passer with great mechanics, great processing speed and great ball placement / timing AND elite running capability coming out of the draft like this. I also think it’s why his analytics are all over the place. He is almost a statistical and analytical anomaly with what he can do and the kind of trouble that gets him into. The obvious, again, is the P2S%. It does look real bad. Especially in 2022 where it was like ****ing 30% or something wild. A large part of it is because he takes off SO much. But he is taking off and getting 30 to 40 yards sometimes and sometimes he is getting -3. Reminds me of Brian Westbrook (right? Someone correct me. Eagles running back back in their day with Mcnibble). It’s gonna inflate his stats obviously. And typically that would be something to frown at yall have taught me that much. But in his case? With the plays he is making I don’t think it is. Speed and running always translates to the NFL. We don’t have to argue over this again btw I know your preferences here almost to the man - and I know I’m in the minority it’s ok lol. When I wanna fight I’ll make up more random bull****. Point is I don’t think there is a good comp. I think if he is successful the next comps for athletic QBs with speed and that can pass are going to be Jayden Daniels and not RG or Lamar. These kinds of guys are new, really. And he is better than they are at it coming out.
