About Daniel
Expert Analysis
Mike Bey | Prep Redzone Scout
Daniel played great as a Sophomore in 2023. His very good play helped the Olentangy Braves to an 11-win season where they advanced to the 3rd round of the playoffs and held opposing offenses to 19.3 points per game. He plays as a NT. Against the pass, he exhibits very good explosiveness off the ball and quickly disengages with ease against interior IOL. He plays with a very good motor in pursuit before finishing up with a sack. Against the run, he is quick off the ball and easily overpowers his man. He shows great mental toughness and football intelligence as he locates the RB and makes the stop short of the goal line preventing a TD.

Really liked what I saw from Daniel’s tape. He is a powerful and athletic defensive tackle that also shows off quickness and explosiveness off the ball. He does a great job finishing tackles and getting guys on the ground whenever he is able to get a hold of them. He effortlessly sheds blocks with very good run awareness and eye discipline to stuff inside runs at the LOS. He shows great play strength with his ability to drive back guards and centers to disrupt inside runs before the LOS. Daniel has recently been gaining D1 interest and has just picked up his first 2 offers both from the MAC. I expect more offers to continue from G5 schools.
