Who will be selected second overall behind presumptive future Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is anybody’s guess two weeks before the 2024 NFL Draft. However, it appears a frontrunner has started to emerge.
Reigning Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels, who is coming off an immensely productive two-year stretch as LSU’s starting quarterback, is seemingly headed to the Washington Commanders at pick No. 2.
According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter, “[t]he signs continue to point to Jayden Daniels going No. 2 to Washington.”
This, in turn, would also have a trickle-down effect on the New England Patriots. With Williams and Daniels both off the board by the time their third overall pick comes around, their own quarterback decision would be down to two players.
