    6’2. 202 Lbs.

    Pre-Draft Analysis

    Daniels is a multitime transfer who ultimately landed at Miami for his final college season. He has good functional movements, displaying good footwork during his releases at the line of scrimmage. Daniels isn’t a burner in the speed category but has effective game speed. He displays effective ball skills, adjusting well on poor throws and making difficult catches. After the catch, he can pick up some extra yards but is not overly dynamic. — Scouts Inc.

    His measurables are above the 50th percentile for NFL receivers, and he appears to have long arms, though he is still on the smaller side for an outside receiver. That does not show up in contested situations, however, as he has posted a contested catch rate above 80.0% over the past two seasons, ranking in the 100th percentile.

    He lacks true difference-making long speed, but he is quick and sudden in his releases and at the top of routes, allowing him to consistently create separation on intermediate routes. He is not a major factor after the catch, with low percentile production in that area.

    Daniels has the experience and release package to line up at all three receiver spots. As a blocker, his slender build can show up against stronger defenders, but he competes with a feisty mentality…

    100th percentile on contested catches. That sounds like it’s better than average.

    Maybe a trait they can work with on third down or in the End zone.
