Schefter on Jayden Daniels visit with WAS “It didn’t seem to go over too well with his agent who sounded off on social media that he didn’t seem particularly pleased with the process. Daniels thought it would be a visit for just him, but WAS essentially opened up the process.” pic.twitter.com/Y69c7pFcUN

UNDER PRESSURE
Welcome to town, Adam Peters.
Hitting on this number 2 pick is SO IMPORTANT.
I spoke with @john_keim about this, he said, “Listen it’s Adam Peters’ first draft and there might be as much pressure on someone’s first draft as anybody who’s going to draft.” pic.twitter.com/j8SthfzZzH

Maye or Daniels?
The Commanders are almost on the clock.
I caught up with @RealBramW about this looming decision.

“It has been tracking for Jayden Daniels to go at number two..
It feels like Jayden Daniels has an interest in being other places..

Sigh. Nobody has said it backfired. Nobody has said the player is upset. Would not take that as fact by any means. Narratives/perception do not equal truth. Daniels remains firmly among the options. A strong one at that. Nothing has changed. https://t.co/AuTYxOplgy

The first overall pick has basically been known for months, which is why everyone is saying the #NFLDraft essentially starts with the @Commanders at No. 2:#NFL #HTTC pic.twitter.com/ZjphjwcFDr

Just remember, the NFL Likes/Needs some drama for the draft.
There will be no drama for the #1 overall pick…
All this could be something or it could be drama drummed up to boost ratings.
Don’t ever forget, this is a business and a multi-billion one at that.

I honestly believe that the Commanders have JJ McCarthy higher than Drake Maye on thier board and the organization is split between Daniels and McCarthy so they did that interesting top 30 interview to see who’s cooler under the preassure.

Keim said from talking to people who know JD, the 2 teams he wants to go to are Washington and Minnesota because of the coaching he would get. If you want every word and context do listen to his pod.

Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk believes that LSU QB Jayden Daniels does NOT want to play for the #Commanders:
“I’m going to get drafted by one of the most dysfunctional franchises in the NFL over the last quarter century, they got new management. Why should I want to play here?” pic.twitter.com/glleOxrFTX

Remember when Caleb Williams wanted to own a piece of a team, then he didn’t want to play for Chicago … now that he’s locked in there, the first consequential pick of the draft is the Commanders … take all of this with a big grain of salt

Sounds like @BaldyNFL is a big Michael Penix guy:
“To me, he’s the second best quarterback in this draft.. The guy has already elevated one program from being a doormat to a top program. He’s already elevated all these people around him..” pic.twitter.com/vwba7YY6Fj

Our guy @BaldyNFL on Daniels’ agent not liking the Top Golf outing:
“I wouldn’t really care what an agent says. Agents aren’t playing. Agents say things all the time [for] leverage. If Jayden wants to go play for the Raiders, that’s not how this league works.. If I was Daniels…
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) April 19, 2024
Who would @BaldyNFL take with the 2nd pick:
“I would take Jayden. I think there’s a place for Jayden Daniels in this league.” He thinks he would be a great fit with Kliff Kingsbury and that the pairing would work out very well.

If one somehow gets pushed down the board, yes, sign me up for packaging Day 2 picks to get up into the 20s for a tackle like Latham or Fashanu.
— Burgundy Blog (@BurgundyBlog) April 20, 2024
My guess is they’re going to move up for Guyton. Brought in on a top 30 visit, should be there in early 20s, freak athlete with all the tools
— SoloDolo (@kldolo_21) April 20, 2024
It’s become common to claim that Commanders should trade back into the 1st for an OT. Been there. This suggests the rookie would quickly begin protecting the QB. We sure about that?
