Clunky. I'm going to break down two ways to do this.
>Pushing into Cloud of Daggers.
The go-to strategy for making Cloud of Daggers work is to use Quicken metamagic to cast Cloud of Daggers behind an enemy. Then follow up with Booming Blade with a bludgeoning weapon, using the Crusher feat to push. You can also dip warlock in '24 for Repelling Blast, or dip for the Push weapon mastery. The enemy takes damage when they are pushed into the Cloud of Daggers, and then take damage again when they start their turn in the Cloud of Daggers.
>Grappling into Cloud of Daggers.
The strategy above also works for grappling, and you don't have to go sorcerer. Instead of Valor Bard, which is good with Booming Blade, you go Dance Bard with the Grappler feat. On your turn you cast Cloud of Daggers behind the enemy, and then expend a Bardic Inspiration for Agile Strikes. Upon hitting, you get to attempt a grapple. Then you drag the enemy into the Cloud of Daggers for the same benefits. I think 14 Strength is fine with expertise in Athletics. Ask your DM if you can use Dexterity to grapple. Using another ability score for a skill check is in the rules. It's fair to ask your DM if you use Dexterity for this instead. I'd let you. Your DM might not.
