Rams Select CJ Daniels with 197th Pick

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.
