Dan Quinn is going to push the next Lamar Jackson” draft. Analyst Says About Jayden Daniels.

The Washington Commanders will have an opportunity to turn the franchise around with the No. 2 overall pick in the NFL, provided they select a quarterback other than Caleb Williams, who is predicted to be selected with the first choice. Whether it’s 2022 ACC Player of the Year Drake Maye or LSU quarterback and current Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels, head coach Dan Quinn and general manager Adam Peters will select a player in the first round of their rebuilding draft that has the ability to drastically impact the club. Former defensive back and NFL Network analyst Charles Davis projected that Quinn will try to pick Daniels because of his ability to use his legs, especially considering his defensive background.

“I do think Jayden Daniels will hold a lot of value and a lot of intrigue because Washington has hired Dan Quinn as its new head coach,” Davis stated on the NFL Network. Head coaches with a defensive mindset are crazy about quarterbacks who can run the football and perform off-schedule.He is Lamar Jackson’s future.” In 2023, the former LSU quarterback had one of his best seasons to date. Daniels passed for 3,812 yards, 40 touchdowns, and just four interceptions during his Heisman campaign. With his legs, he was also a potent danger, with 1,134 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Daniels also had nothing but positive things to say about his meeting with Quinn, offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, and the other members of the Commanders coaching staff at the NFL Scouting Combine. It’s also important to discuss the possible relationship with Kingsbury, who had a standout quarterback in Arizona Cardinals head coach Kyler Murray for four years.

Daniels remarked, “With them, it was how cool the staff was.” It goes without saying that Dan Quinn, Kliff Kingsbury, and all those kinds of guys were there, as was the opportunity to simply sit and get to know people. You watch them on television and witness everyone providing behind-the-scenes guidance. Therefore, for me, the nicest part is getting to go talk to them outside.” Washington needs to make improvements at the quarterback position if it hopes to regain its relevance. If Quinn is favored by Daniel’s ability to use his legs, the commanders should select the player their head coach is so enamored of if they want to continue to succeed under this regime.
