Strengths

• Arguably his best skill due to an extraordinary burst off the snap. Explodes out of his stance, demonstrating a burst upfield to slip gaps and the lateral agility once past the line to chase down the quarterback.
• A high-motor pass rusher with good quickness, Daly has a compact but wide frame and long arms.
• With a powerful lower body and the ability to hold up at the point of attack as a run defender, Daly is remarkably instinctive.
• He’s long but has a powerful lower body and plays with impressive leverage considering his tall frame.
• Rarely goes to the ground, showing good balance from his high school wrestling days.
• Strong tackler. Has good power in hands and can anchor, shed, and chase.

Weaknesses

• His spin move is a bit slow and mechanical. He’s susceptible to cut blocks, a tactic that was used on him often
• He’s stiff as an athlete, as Daly lacks the flexibility to truly threaten the edge.
• While he has violent hands, he uses them too inconsistently. Daly tends to let blockers get into his chest, and he’ll waste time hand fighting due to a limited array of pass rush moves.
