Daniel Jeremiah Predicts Drake Maye to Commanders amid Jayden Daniels Draft Rumors

The Washington Commanders have been rumored to be interested in selecting LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels with the No. 2 pick in next week's NFL draft, but one expert believes they are eyeing another highly-touted prospect.

During a conference call with reporters on Wednesday, NFL Network draft expert Daniel Jeremiah said "he's personally leaning" toward the Commanders drafting North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye over Daniels.

Jeremiah cited his familiarity with new Commanders general manager Adam Peters and how he operates as the reason for his prediction, emphasizing the "suspense" that continues to surround the No. 2 pick.
