Scouting Journals for Nyier Daniels

Behemoth offensive tackle prospect with intriguing upside due to his massive frame and above average movement skills. One of the biggest prospects in the 2024 cycle. Measured at around 6-foot-8 370 pounds prior to his senior season. Has elite length and a very large frame with arms that measure around around 36 inches and hands that exceed 11 inches. Has continued adding weight heading into his senior season. Primarily lines up at left tackle for New Jersey powerhouse Bergen Catholic. A bully in the run game. Mows opposing defensive linemen as a drive blocker. Has rare body quickness for a lineman of his size. Shows fluidity in his movements and very good ankle flexion for such a big lineman. Further along as a pass blocker at this stage. Has a tendency to bend at the waist and lunge in pass protection. Has a tendency to play high and will need to work on his pad level. Does not register as a top athlete in the limited athletic testing data available. Will likely need time to reshape his body once in a college strength program. Younger for the cycle, turning 18 years-old weeks before his first college game.
