re: I’d love LSU to somehow retain Cj Daniels

If they really wanted him they could increase the ante and he would be back. Or they may be planning on spending their money elsewhere.

Better WRs incoming

Daniels is mediocre at best! For what we paid he was very pedestrian 42 catches, 480 and zero tds. Not elite!

You don’t know ball, and you didn’t watch the games. Daniels was way better than his direct production. He helped get other people open, was great in run blocking, had to change positions the week before camp when Hilton went down, was open a good bit when Nuss was forcing it to Lacey or Taylor and just didn’t see him. Played all season on a hurt heel and got banged up again a couple more times. Was no coincidence our passing game suffered a good bit when he went down.

The coaches loved him, too. Also no coincidence that before he went down he lead all the WRs in snaps. Had over 50 more than Lacy less than halfway through the season. And almost double the snaps of Anderson. Dude is a good football player and made our offense more complete. Hated he left.

That’s said, he’s a nice #2, but probably should be a 3 in an LSU corps. He was worth grabbing this year, but next he’d be too steep. Not the best use of resources. And he’s got personal ties (football) at Auburn, they supposedly offered him a ton, and there’s fear his heel injury may be degenerative, so this may be his best chance to get a bag. That makes sense to me, because he’s a 5th year guy with enough film and traits to have not just declared for the draft instead of playing another year in college.

The freshman played a ton last year. Cam Coleman was a stud. Geez.

I liked Daniels, because he was an excellent possession guy, but those guys can be found in the portal. He had zero explosiveness, and that’s what we need.

Would not be my first choice for sure unless it’s the money.
