He is still a baby in terms of harnessing his ability. But he has NFL qualities for sure. I think he will be a very high draft choice when he comes out. Good size, runs well, strong arm. Still a project though. McNabb very high on him.

Outplayed Daniel? What am I reading in this thread? Two homer Illini fans that went to the game were not impressed, but the rest of the board thinks he was great. I don't get it. Must be some chemically altered minds on this Labor Day weekend.Juice Williams a high draft pick? I agree he outplayed Daniels, but he will be lucky to be drafted at all as a QB. If anything a team will take a chance on him in the last round as a WR or RB.
Iowa will beat Illinois this year too. The Hawkeyes will finish the year 8-4 or 9-3.

It's Daniel. And he's the best QB in the nation. Juice didn't outplay him. My name is Illini, and I went to the game, so you can be sure that Juice didn't sniff Daniel's jock, let alone outplay him.Missouri won because of Maclin and their running game, not because of Chase Daniels. Daniels was average in that game, so by saying Juice outplayed him I'm not saying he looked like Peyton Manning out there. He just played an above average game against a very bad defense. Bad QB's do that sometimes.
Most of his yards were gifts by a weak secondary. And several of those throws should have been touchdowns, but he overthrew them, and they had to lay out to catch them. He's terrible, D2. I know it's hard to see it on TV, but being at the game and seeing the routes develop that weren't on the TV screen.......you see just how weak he is at reading the defense. He throws to the wrong guy most of the time. He's got a cannon and he runs well, but he still has a ton of improving to do before I would even call him good. I love the kid and hope that he develops, but it's getting late in his career.Well, it's hard to portray 451 yards and 5 TD passes as a bad game. He had just an awful start to the game, but after the first couple drives he was mostly very very good IMO. He has a lot to work on but I think he has a lot to work with too.
I could be wrong, won't be the first or last time, but I think he has a chance to play QB at the next level.

I would like to hope you're right, but I just don't think he has it in him. This is his third year in the system, and he's started that whole time. He's no longer inexperienced. I think he's gonna show flashes, like the Ohio St game last year. But unfortunately, I think he's gonna turn out to be a Chris Rix.Right, he's going to keep getting better at reading defenses and making plays. He has the size, runs well and has a big arm and I think can show touch too. It's just a matter of putting it all together. It won't happen overnight. But it's the kind of a project with a big payoff that NFL teams often take. He has the prototype body and athleticism.
