On a loaded team like King, it can be easy to get lost in the shuffle. There’s only so much spotlight to go around after all. But in the midst of the flashy stuff, Daryl has been putting in the work and grinding in the trenches. After watching a couple of his games in full, I feel very confident in my evaluation of Daryl. To start off, he has elite motor and bend. Tackles have a hard time even getting a hand on him at times. When the play goes the opposite way or the QB is scrambling around, he shows no signs of slowing down. He continues to chase and pursue with high effort. What’s great to see this season is how versatile he has become. From pass rush to run stopping, there really isn’t a weakness in the game.

Keep an eye out for this dude to continue making noise.

I really like what Darryl has put on tape. Akron thinks so too, as they sent out an offer back in April.

Daryl wins with speed and motor. I really like Daryl’s getoff, and he does a nice job using his hands and getting skinny in order to get into the opposing backfield. Additionally, there are a few moments of promising bend. With an elite getoff and great motor, Daryl puts himself in a good position this offseason. In my view, he tracks as a DT in college, and I’m hoping he continues growing into that role. If he proves to be taller than 6’1″-6’2″, he could play 5-tech.
