Have only seen him play twice.
Liked him from the first time because he stays within the Mizzou offense and keeps his teammates involved. He makes them better. Not sure about his NFL potential. Doesn't seem to be an exact science in that world. Too many intagibles. Who would have thought Jon Kitna would have had the career he's had? Why was Ryan Leaf a bust?
Back to Chase - He probably received the QB training that many kids wished they would or could. And he helped make the decision. Eventually, and hopefully, he and his father will find other things they can relate to each other about - maybe they already do. His parents appreciate those who have helped their son and that IS a breath of fresh air.
This sounds much different than the Todd Maronivich (USC) situation. Chase's upbringing seemed less rigid (based on one news article).

He's a great college QB and seems to be a great kid. I once bragged that the Chicago Bears got the steal of the draft the year Cade McNown fell to them. I've since stopped predicting NFL futures of college QBs

Honestly, I wouldn't count the kid out in the NFL. I know his height is an issue, but this dude is an incredible competitior. One of those leaders that makes everyone else around him better; just by being aggressive and competitive.
People discounted Brady when he first came out of college; "he's too skinny, he's too slow" etc... Look where he is now.

Both Matt Hasselbeck - Round 6 (1998) and Tom Brady - Round 6 (2000) were not highly regarded coming out of college. Both are Pro Bowl QBs.

Chase is steady, smart, reliable, unafraid to run when needed and spreads the ball around like an excellent Point Guard on a Hoop team.
Low-round NFL pick or Free Agent, might make the club, but if he does, could turn into a real solid # 2.

I think that if Troy Smith can play in the NFL so can Daniel. I'm not saying Smith is a starter, I'm just saying, if he makes a roster, so can Daniel.

i agree he's not likely to be a pro bowl nfl qb, although who knows.
the point of the article was about his dedication and his parent's help without forcing him into things. the things he did growing up were his choice with the support of his parents.
i just thought it was an interesting read, particularly since i have an 11 year old boy who has given me a few 'holy cow' moments as the article talks about.
