Player Analysis

Kliff Kingsbury has experience drafting a mobile QB in Kyler Murray and having success in Year 1, and we have another opportunity to see more of the same this year. Kyler finished as the QB12 (18.8 FPPG) with 3722 passing yards, 544 rushing yards, and 5.8 rush attempts/game. That is legit dual-threat numbers right there. Daniels might have even more upside because of his 14.1% scramble rate in college, which was third highest in CFB since 2019. For context, Lamar Jackson had the highest rate last year at 11%. Not only that, but Daniels' 17% designed rushing rate can carry over. All three NFL QBs with that mark or higher were Top-12 QBs last year. Even if the passing production isn't there, he can still succeed...Since 2000, there were 24 QBs who threw for less than 3500 yards but had more than 80 rushing attempts. 20 of them averaged more than 20 FPPG (correlates to Top-8 finish).11 of them averaged more than 22 FPPG (correlates to Top-5 finish). All Daniels needs to do is average about 205 passing yards and 4.7 rush attempts/game. And that shouldn't be an issue; Kyler Murray averaged 5.8 rushing yards/game in his rookie year, but it also comes down to Kliff Kingsbury's offense. In his four years with Murray, he ranked 1st in offensive plays/game (Washington was bottom-12 last year), 6th in early down neutral pass rate. This just means more scrambling opportunities for Daniels. Can we see a similar rookie year to RG3 when he passed for 3200 yards and ran for 815 yards for Washington in his rookie season? He averaged 21.17 FPPG, which correlates to a high-end fantasy QB1. History tells us that Daniels has a pretty safe floor if he stays healthy (Top-12) and has the upside to finish Top-5 like the 45% of QBs since 2000 did with similar but conservative projections for him.
