00:00We'll be right back.
00:11The pick is officially in with
00:14the second overall selection of
00:15the 2024 NFL Draft. The
00:17Washington Commanders have
00:19drafted Jaden Daniels out of
00:21LSU. The 2023 Heisman Trophy
00:25winner. Kev, we go right to you
00:26because although Jaden Daniels
00:28wasn't always the favorite to
00:30be the second overall pick of
00:31this draft, he wasn't always
00:33the favorite to be the second
00:35overall selection. What did the
00:37odds say in the weeks leading
00:39up to the NFL Draft? You are
00:40absolutely spot on when we first
00:42had eyes on these markets. The
00:44idea is it would be Drake May
00:46because Drake May was always
00:48expected to be a round one
00:50quarterback. Jaden Daniels got
00:52to this point through his
00:53Heisman season last year at LSU.
00:56As tempting as it is for me to
00:57I think that is dangerous for
00:58Washington. I'll leave that for
01:00others to discuss, but this is a
01:02market that saw Jaden start to
01:04pull away and then all of a
01:06sudden it came back. Daniels in
01:08the news, not positively with
01:10his thoughts on what Washington
01:12was doing throughout this
01:13process. Agent tweets, top golf
01:16apparently not his deal. Drake
01:18May loved it. Washington didn't
01:20care despite sending them all to
01:22golf, but we saw minus 110
01:24either direction for May and
01:26Daniels within the last 10 days.
01:29Daniels though, once he took
01:31that spot back, continued to
01:33march away. Minus 115 to minus
01:36175 to minus 340. And once we
01:39saw that minus 1000 number, it
01:42was all but done that
01:43Washington was going to take
01:45Jaden Daniels Ben out of LSU.
