4. Colorado Buffaloes

Speaking of programs in the midst of a rebuild, Jayden Daniels to Colorado instantly upgrades the quarterback room in Boulder. Head coach Karl Dorrell would relish having a player the caliber of Daniels to move his rebuild forward.

Like transferring to Arizona, the move would keep Daniels in the Pac-12. Unlike transferring to Arizona, Daniels is the undoubted day one starter in Boulder. If Daniels is looking to develop and prepare for the next level, is Colorado the ideal place?

3. Oregon State Beavers

Daniels going north to Corvallis would further the progress of the Beavers’ program. Daniels is an upgrade over incumbent starter Chance Nolan. Johnathan Smith, a former quarterback, has shown an ability to coach the position well.

The Beavers have some solid pieces at the skill position, including Nebraska transfer receiver Tyjon Lindsey. Daniels would be a great addition to the Beavers and possibly make them a contender in the Pac-12 North.
