Fade Daniels at QB5. You are paying for the outlier season rather than the baseline, and the body has not held up.
STACKED’s take
Daniels overpriced at QB5; injury history and lost protection make 2024 outlier unlikely to repeat.
Jim Coventry argues Jayden Daniels is being drafted as QB5 on the back of his magical 2024 season, but the outlook is overly optimistic. Daniels has a slight 6-foot-4, 210-pound frame; the 2024 campaign was an outlier in which he avoided injury, yet he missed 10 games in 2025. He has now lost left tackle Laremy Tunsil to a torn triceps, and with the Commanders' weak defense likely to produce negative game scripts, Daniels will face continued punishment. At current ADP cost, this is a bet on best-case scenario rather than baseline performance. Coventry's bottom line: fade Daniels at QB5 because you are paying for the outlier season rather than the baseline, and the body has not held up.
