Who’s everyone’s QB1 next year coming out of the draft. Thought it would be cool to see this post this time next year and see who the real couch GMs are. I think Penix is the best QB in college right now but his age has most people concerned and he’s had his share of injuries. Caleb Williams was most people’s QB1 until a couple weeks ago, then I think most people fell in love with Maye. But the past 3 weeks he’s looked bad against weak ACC defenses. Right now everyone is raving about Jayden Daniel’s TD to INT ratio and comparing him to Burrow with Joe having much better WRs. Who cares where we might draft if we had the 1st pick and didn’t have to sell the farm to get it who are you pounding the table for? I have to say Daniels he’s done great this year and he could be the next great Mobile QB.
I am going to preface this by saying that I’m a Ducks fan, but it’s Bo Nix. The guy doesn’t make mistakes, and rarely misses a pass with a historical 78.6% completion percentage (currently an NCAA record.) We’ve got a good backfield so we aren’t using his mobility (he played like a dual threat QB last year.)
One thing everyone who doesn’t watch him fails to realize that he gets benched fairly often when we’re blowing teams out. Everyone dickrides Daniels for putting up 8 touchdowns but he plays down to the final seconds in blowouts and stat pads — meanwhile Bo goes for 400 yards and 6 touchdowns in the first half, before sitting out the entire second half, he could’ve stayed in and thrown for 600 yards and 8 touchdowns but didn’t.
Despite this he’s leading the NCAA in passing yards and only 3 passing touchdowns behind Daniels. Granted Daniels is an electric runner, I’ll give that to him.
