Final Report
Daniels played one season at Miami (FL) after transferring from LSU and was a key contributor in the Canes National Championship Game run. You may remember him for his insane one handed catch in the opener against Notre Dame and that was just a glimpse into the player he is. He has strong hands at the catch point and uses his size to win 50/50 balls. Miami routinely used him on tunnel screens and he showed an ability to consistently move the chains with his craftiness after the catch. Daniels plays with a swagger and confidence that is infectious. He does struggle against press man and will benefit from playing off the line of scrimmage to start. Despite his YAC ability, he doesn't have the top end speed but does do a good job of stacking defenders and utilizing space to his advantage. Daniels has had a history of missing time with leg injuries at both LSU and Miami.
