NEW YORK, N.Y. – It’s fantasy football draft season, and an expert has spoken.

As a Washington Commanders fan, Berry says rookie Jayden Daniels is a must-draft QB.

"His rushing upside — 2,000 rushing yards in his last two years at LSU. Think about [offensive coordinator] Kliff Kingsbury when he got Kyler Murray as a rookie, and he was a top-10 fantasy quarterback his rookie year under Kingsbury. I think Jayden Daniels, he's going anywhere from QB 12-15. I have him at QB8. I think Jayden Daniels is going to have an awesome year," Berry told Fox News Digital of the reigning Heisman Trophy winner.
