This was really a strange draft with QBs.
I get the hype for Williams and Mayes, they were already in the 1st rd prior to last season, and just didn't have to collapse too bad. I get the Daniels hype, as the Heisman winner, and a guy who not only massively improved, he corrected everything he was told to work on. I even see the attraction to Penix, who has a fricking cannon and can go on insane streaks.
I don't see the 1st round love for Nix (who benefitted from a system) or McCarthy, who simply was the starter for the national champs... if that was an 8 win team he's a 3rd or 4th rd guy. And without their elite defense, that's an 8 win team.
In a "normal" draft, I could see the following- Williams, Daniels and Mayes as 1st rd picks. Penix in the 2nd rd, to a team that wants a guy to start immediately.
And Rattler, Nix and McCarthy going 3rd/4th rd, possibly in that order. McCarthy seems to be picked because he's 'a winner', which is more of a team thing than what he actually did. Nix again seems to be getting the "winner" bump from Oregon, and Rattler is getting pushed down because Riley wanted Williams instead (but then, Williams was the #1 pick. So is that really a knock, or just that he happened to be on the wrong team?)
I could see Rattler as a QB on a playoff team, easily.
