CJ Daniels Fantasy Stats

The Los Angeles Rams have selected Miami (FL) wide receiver CJ Daniels with the 197th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A 24-year-old prospect, Daniels spent six seasons at three different schools, topping 1,000 yards once in a career-best 2023 season at Liberty that he was unable to replicate at either LSU or Miami. Lacking any truly elite traits, he proved himself to be a crafty route runner and an important piece of the Hurricanes' deep playoff run. He projects most comfortably as a big slot at the next level, and while the Rams have found recent success with a Day 3 pick of a similar archetype, Daniels is more likely to make his mark on special teams than as an impactful fantasy option.
