Rookie Expectations: James Daniels

The Chicago Bears were thrilled that the were able to bolster the interior of their offensive line when they selected James Daniels in the second round. Most expected the selection of Daniels to mean that Cody Whitehair would move back to guard, but the Bears plan to use Whitehair at center still and have Daniels work in at guard. What could Daniels be for the Bears in 2018? Let’s take a look.

Best-Case Scenario

Daniels shines all summer long and cements himself starting at guard opposite Kyle Long and next to Whitehair. The Bears interior trio which was promising with Josh Sitton, looks just as good and younger with Daniels replacing Sitton.
