ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler said quarterback Jayden Daniels is name to watch for the Las Vegas Raiders in the 2024 NFL Draft.
“Jayden Daniels out of LSU is a name to watch, as I’ve talked to a few teams who have pointed out Antonio Pierce, who was with him at ASU back in the day, loves him. Of course, he went to LSU, won the Heisman, could be a top 3 pick. Raiders pick 13th, so they would have to make a huge jump to get up there and get him, but it’s at least a possibility.”
Daniels passed for 3,812 yards, threw 40 touchdown passes, and just four interceptions while taking home the Heisman Trophy for the LSU Tigers.Â
Pierce and Daniels’s connection goes back to when Pierce recruited Daniels to Arizona State. Daniels also was in the Raiders locker room after Las Vegas beat the Denver Broncos in their season finale. Daniels could be a perfect fit for the Raiders.
The Raiders are expected to move aggressively for a quarterback and move on from Jimmy Garoppolo.
