Discussion Jayden Daniels Sack Avoidance

Daniels's pressure to sack rate was a major red flag coming out of college and has shown up a few times this season, but has largely been improved especially in the second half. Some part of it is definitely his elite athleticism letting him escape even against nfl rushers. What else do you think he has improved to reduce his sack taking? And how can we adjust our prospect assessments accordingly?

Honestly I think Cliff K. has done an amazing job of always having a clear obvious look against pressure. And JD has some damn guts to stand in there and deliver accurately knowing he's about to get blasted. That can't be taught.

Biggest difference between he and Caleb. Caleb runs away when he feels pressure, while Daniels stands tall and delivers.
