Interesting reading on Daniels in the SBNation link below.

Pad level was often an issue for Daniels, as he had a tenancy to stand up when coming off the ball as a sophomore, a typical problem for high school defensive tackles. There are also times when Daniels didn't bring his hands with him at all when attacking an opposing offensive lineman. In the instances where he did, he demonstrated a powerful punch that suggests some upper body strength.

The probable reason for his three-star ranking by several of the services is likely his lack of first-step explosiveness. While the Bishop Dunne product is a solid athlete for his size and for his position, it's hard to project him as a disruptive defensive tackle at the next level because the short-area quickness isn't apparent from his film. Rather, Daniels looks like a player who will have to learn to plug gaps and hold up at the point of attack.

However, when he did bring his hands, had proper pad level, and drove his legs, his bull rush was effective, a suggestion of his upside when he refines the technical aspects of his game.

Ever since this guy I'm leery of the Dallas private school guys:

Came in as all-world recruit...caught two passes as a senior. Maybe a good kid, but overated.

One guy, who graduated 13 years ago, that didn't live up to his hype, is little reason to be leery of all Dallas private school guys.
 
Leggett's a more recent example, and there are lots of others at places besides UM.

I'm not saying that private school kids from TX can't be successful, Mike's kid seems like a no-brainer take for example, just that they warrant an extra degree of analysis, IMO.
