It’s no secret that the top of the 2024 Draft is stocked with elite QB Talent. Each of the top three picks needs to address their QB situation this offseason. With the first overall pick, the Bears are likely going to take 2022 Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams. At #2, the Commanders are also going to take a QB.

Graziano noted that the Vikings and Raiders are both “desperate” to move up to the third pick if Jayden Daniels is available.

Here’s what we know. The Commanders will undoubtedly take a QB with the second overall pick. Sam Howell did not cut it for them last season and they need a serious upgrade. Owning the #2 pick is an easy way for the Commanders to address that need. It seems like a no-brainer for Washington to take Jayden Daniels. He won the Heisman Trophy last season and is an elite athlete. However, ESPN’s Dan Graziano noted that Daniels might not be the pick for the Commanders.
The team is still weighing their options and doesn’t have a definite answer yet. If the Commanders passed on Daniels, two teams have reported interest in the former LSU QB. Minnesota and Las Vegas are the top suitors to trade up to the third overall pick. That’s if the Patriots are willing to trade back. Minnesota traded with the Browns for a second first-round pick in 2024. This foreshadows…
