Sam Monson said Jaden Daniels is the clear front-runner among the new-wave passers to seize future MVP honors and eventually sit atop the league’s quarterback hierarchy. Monson pointed to Daniels being only 24 years old yet already flashing every trait evaluators crave: a live NFL-caliber arm, advanced coverage recognition, dynamic rushing athleticism, and what he called the "clutch gene"—highlighting last season’s late-game dime against Cincinnati as proof. He emphasized that Daniels dragged a roster that "shouldn’t be there" to an NFC Championship appearance, underscoring how much win equity he personally adds. Monson conceded a sophomore slump is possible but argued even a Year-2 dip wouldn’t derail the long-term trajectory given how many Year-3 explosions we’ve seen from elite QBs recently. His actionable takeaway: stash Daniels aggressively in dynasty and best-ball tournaments, sprinkle long-shot MVP futures before the market catches up, and treat him as a high-ceiling QB1 in season-long redraft leagues as early as 2025.
