The Broncos under Shanahan/Kubiak used a lot of hybrid FB/H-Back/TE types. This kid is very versatile. I would not be hung up on the "TE" label. I think he might be groomed to fill several spots. I also would not be shocked if he winds up on the practice squad the first year so he can be developed while the Daniels/Dreesen/Hill logjam works itself out.
Daniels might make attractive trade bait since he has posted some great numbers for the position. I wonder how much OD's untimely turnovers are part of the issue here - a desire by the Texans to give the job to somebody who hangs onto the ball better than OD does.
