"Daniels is a true phenom, even if his one season is a small sample size. He was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, but the franchise has been here before. Think Robert Griffin III and the memorable 2012 campaign, but there are differences. The main difference is that Daniels is already streets ahead of Griffin as a passer. Last year's No. 2 overall pick is calmer and more accurate under pressure"
"and can still beat coverage in obvious passing situations. This was evidenced by completing 60.5 percent of his passes and throwing 10 touchdowns on third downs. Griffin wasn't ticking those boxes even when his dual-threat skills had every defender in the league running scared and chasing shadows. Daniels is only going to get better, so Peters couldn't let his QB1 enter the next phase of his development without his go-to target."
Adam Peters prioritized keeping Terry McLaurin to support Jayden Daniels' growth as the franchise quarterback. Jayden Daniels showed advanced passing skill, finishing his rookie season as Offensive Rookie of the Year with notable accuracy and clutch third-down production. Daniels' ability to remain calm under pressure and beat coverage contrasts with prior quarterback Robert Griffin III. McLaurin offers a marquee vertical skill set, the ability to win outside the numbers, beat man coverage and make contested catches. Retaining McLaurin preserves a trusted deep threat for Daniels and sustains McLaurin's 1,000-yard receiving streak in Washington.
