No player had done more for his draft stock than Jayden Daniels, who went from Day 3 prospect to likely first-rounder in the span of a few months -- months which also saw him rightly win the Heisman Trophy. The player, you could argue, who was just as deserving? Michael Penix Jr., the Washington QB who in two years for the Huskies has looked like a completely different player than the one who transferred from Indiana. Both players deserve to be in the QB3 conversation. And given that quarterback evaluations are more art than science, and that different teams have different ideas of what the ideal quarterback looks like, we could see any combination of Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Daniels and Penix by the time we get to April 25, the first day of the 2024 NFL Draft. For mock draft 5.0, I have the Bears trading down one spot with the Commanders, who move up for Williams, who has been my QB1 since the summer and that hasn't changed. The cost is prohibitive -- and certainly more than what the Bears paid in 2017 to go from No. 3 to No. 2 for Mitch Trubisky. But demand outstrips supply when it comes to drafting QBs, and if you fall in love with a prospect -- especially a franchise quarterback -- you're going to have to pay for the opportunity to draft him.
