Was sort of an offensive player with limitations and questiobable effort in college, if I remember correctly. It seems the concerns were legit about his offense. No one really saw he will become such a difference maker on defense.
Yeah, my bad. That was a typo on my part.
I hated McDaniels in that draft. I watched a lot of highlights because I really liked Stewart on the same team. McDaniels was a very high recruit and he was pretty bad as a freshman. 2020 was such a weird year to evaluate prospects though. It just makes you realize you cannot make a final evaluation on such young prospects who are still trying to find their footing.
I wonder where McDaniels ranked in that draft for Bob V. Seems to be the type of player he would have ranked hi. Anyway, Bob V blew that draft big time....and I am still a Josh Green believer.
