With the logjam at running back McDaniel moved to defense and acquitted himself well during the Blue-Gold game. He certainly looked fast enough to stay with the receivers and was in position just not tall enough to battle the TE’s. and other tall receivers–reminded me of Stan Smagalia who eventually started at CB.

McDaniel has good quickness moves and speed and should be a standout on special teams. Don’t know how good his hands are but would at least give him a shot at punt returner. He should also be short field kickoff returner.

Time will tell but Kelly shouldn’t squander this talent.
