Now that the NFL Draft Combine has come and gone, draft boards can continue to take shape around the league.
While it appears clear who is going No. 1 overall, Caleb Williams, the debate at No. 2 is heating up with Jayden Daniels seemingly gaining momentum to be the second pick in April's NFL draft.
Daniels, who was priced far less likely to hear his name second, has drawn closer to Drake Maye following the combine.

The top three signal callers in this years draft -- Williams, Maye or Daniels -- didn't work out in Indianapolis, but did do the media circuit and met with teams.

I caught up with North Carolina QB Drake Maye at the combine for @gmfb @nflnetwork pic.twitter.com/q2fJR2yUCE
While there may be an actual race between who goes No. 2, some are still unconvinced that the North Carolina product isn't in fact the second quarterback selected.
I won't believe anyone else is QB2 other than Drake Maye until the card is turned in
