The 2024 NFL Draft is Thursday, and the excitement for your favorite team to get even better should already be brewing. Which of the 32 teams will get 2023 Heisman QB Jayden Daniels? Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s'NFL Draft odds for QB Jayden Daniels'and tab which team will draft him — just one of many SportsbookWire’s expert NFL picks and predictions.
Daniels was absolutely awing to watch in his time at LSU. While the Tigers didn’t do as well in SEC play as they would’ve liked, Daniels blew up and should be a top-5 pick Thursday night. He ended the season with 3,812 passing yards and 40 passing touchdowns, throwing just 4 interceptions.
Daniels transferred from Arizona State in 2022 and joined the Tigers, ending 2023 with 17 passing TDs and 3 interceptions. His dual-threat nature must be noted as well as he ran for 1,134 rushing yards, adding 10 more touchdowns to his resume in 2023.
The thing most teams should be concerned about is if he can take those talents to the next level, much like QB Lamar Jackson did with the Baltimore Ravens. Jackson ended last season with a 72.2% completion rate, showing a great presence in the pocket and is expected to be a top-3 pick in the upcoming draft.
