2024 NFL Draft Preview: Caleb Williams Leads QBs, But Who’s Next?

In the 2024 NFL Draft lead-up, all eyes are on the quarterback prospects vying to follow the standout favorite, Caleb Williams.

Daniels ignites excitement with his impressive speed and powerful arm. His dynamic playstyle promises a thrill to any NFL team lucky to draft him. The allure of Daniels’s athleticism is undeniable, making him a hot topic in draft discussions.

Yet, Maye might hold the edge as the next-best quarterback prospect after Williams. At approximately 6 foot 4, Maye’s stature matches his big arm and considerable talent. His potential for success is viewed favorably compared to Sam Howell, another University of North Carolina quarterback with a notable college career. Maye’s abilities and prospects have made him the odds-on favorite to be the second quarterback off the board at -150.

The anticipation builds as Williams is a -1600 favorite for the first overall pick. The draft’s intrigue continues with the expectation of quarterbacks dominating the top selections. With the Chicago Bears, Washington Commanders, and New England Patriots holding the first three picks, the scenario is ripe for a quarterback trifecta. Williams is anticipated to go first, followed by Maye to the Commanders, and Daniels rounding out the top three, where he is favored to be selected third overall.

The connection between Maye and the Commanders is particularly intriguing, given the team’s recent history with Howell, another UNC quarterback. Despite Howell being a fifth-round pick, the comparison between him and Maye emphasizes the difference in their draft prospects, underscoring Maye’s elevated status in this year’s draft class.

As the draft approaches, the debate between choosing Maye or Daniels remains a focal point. While Daniels’s physical prowess makes him an attractive option, Maye’s overall package of size, arm strength, and potential makes him a compelling choice for teams looking for a quarterback who can lead them into the future.

Regardless of where these quarterbacks land, fans and analysts will closely watch their journeys, eager to see how their careers unfold in the NFL.
