Louisiana State QB Jayden Daniels has been selected by the Washington Commanders with the second overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Daniels should be the leading candidate for the starting job entering training camp and likely will be under center Week 1. He can be considered a No. 2 fantasy quarterback at this time but has the chance to become a low-end No. 1 fantasy QB early because of his running ability.

Louisiana State University QB Jayden Daniels "has an interest in being other places" than with the Washington Commanders, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter during his appearance on the Pat McAfee Show on Friday, April 19.
Huddle Up: It should come as no surprise anymore when reports like this surface as teams do their best smokescreen jobs less than a week before the start of the draft. While anything is possible, this report seems like it could have happened after Daniels' agent expressed displeasure with Washington hosting four quarterbacks at roughly the same time earlier this week. It seems unlikely Daniels himself would object to throwing the ball to Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Zach Ertz and Austin Ekeler. If Daniels is truly not thrilled about Washington, the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders would seem to be the two most likely teams to trade up for him.

Louisiana State University QB Jayden Daniels and University of North Carolina QB Drake Maye appear to be the favorites to go No. 2 overall to the Washington Commanders. According to general manager Adam Peters, the Commanders "feel great staying at No. 2" and "do not see a whole lot of scenarios (that interest them) trading down."

University of Michigan QB J.J. McCarthy is reportedly a player who meets Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton's general requirements for a starting quarterback - outstanding intelligence and the ability to get rid of the ball quickly. According to Sportskeeda's Tony Pauline, there is talk that Payton is ready to give up "a king's ransom" to acquire McCarthy, Louisiana State University QB Jayden Daniels or University of North Carolina QB Drake Maye, with McCarthy being the most realistic option. Furthermore, there is a possibility Payton will be willing to include CB Patrick Surtain II to move up in the draft. Pauline also notes that Denver would consider trading down and taking University of Oregon QB Bo Nix if it cannot move up.
Huddle Up: There is a lot to unpack here, but one would have to believe that Daniels or Maye would have to be the target if Payton is willing to include Surtain in a deal as those two quarterbacks possess a theoretical upside that McCarthy does not. While McCarthy appears to be a better prospect than Nix, the Broncos may be wise to trade down and potentially add some more draft picks after giving up their second-round pick in the Russell Wilson trade in 2022.
