Daniels made the jump to full time QB it looks like, after playing more of a supplementary role as a soph. He’s a creative runner, who gets the defender to take bad angles and can really change directions on a dime. Daniels is a really tough player and is fearless taking it into the teeth of the defense. He looks more like a safety or running back at the next level unless he improves his passing but think his athletic talents can be utilized.
