I think last draft the discussion was more around Daniels or Maye for the second pick. Williams was definitely the consensus number one pick. 

Looks like Young was -300 odds heading into draft to be the number one pick and Stroud was +180. 

Williams was -1000 and Daniels was +1400. Maye and Harrison Jr had better odds than Daniels. 

So definitely Young was the heavy favourite but nothing like Williams.

Pretty much. Every year there seems to be some manufactured disagreement right before the draft, but he was consistently the top prospect. That was more extreme for Williams, but even last year there was a little "Maybe it'll be Jayden" talk leading up to the draft.

Williams was definitely the more hyped prospect. The previous year, I remember hearing analysts saying that Young and Stroud wouldn't even be top 5 QB's if they came out a year later.

2 > 1: The curious case of recent QB drafts.

I don’t recall, was Young the consensus pick? Honestly, I didn’t follow that draft very closely because the 49ers didn’t have a pick until the 3rd round. I don’t recall the same hype for Young as there was for Williams.
