STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Daniels has QB1 upside despite QB5 ADP; mid-round priority justified.

Daniels is being taken as QB5 on average but the source identifies him as having QB1 upside. Prioritizing his selection in the middle rounds was justified given the balanced approach to the rest of the draft and his ceiling potential.
