Malachi Lawrence - Every snap from his NFL preseason debut

[kskboys]

Also completely predictable.

Best ignored. Don't get the extreme need to focus posts on other posters.

 

[Acceptablename]

He's strongish

Compare to Akheem Mesidor, the more experienced/polished rookie pass rusher.

Literally did nothing of note. Well I did see a tight end completely neutralize him once or twice.

It’s early, but this is why I wanted Bain with our first pick….we NEED a pass rusher, even more than safety at that first pick.

It's one preseason game. If Lawrence got a sack or two would we be fitting him for a gold jacket? No. So there's no need to write him off after 16 snaps. And he really didn't do poorly anyway.

The mention on Malachi Lawrence during draft night that he's raw and more of a project. If I remember correctly the experts liked the pick, but did mention he's about 2 years away. Not an immediate impact

He’s fortunate that Downs is getting all the first round attention. If he was our only first rounder, this board would be all over his performance so far in TC.

It wasn't great/eye-popping, but in fairness, there was a lot of snaps in there that were all about doing the dirty work (ex. taking on blocks) and discipline (ex. not biting hard on play action, chasing after the run on the backside).

First game in the NFL. Too early to judge.

When he made that glaring error of taking the wrong angle on Milroe leaving the edge wide open and Milroe sprinted for a 1st down his coach on the DL gave him an earful on the sideline . Loved seeing that .

Idk. I guess I was expecting more bend/burst. He seemed to do ok with contain minus a few lapses. I was expecting that to be worse.

He’s just gonna be one of them dudes that takes a bit for it to click, if it clicks at all

This. ^^^This kid is as raw as they come. Saw him play in college several times and he’s got more potential than polish.

I was a little surprised we took him, not because he wasn’t rated a late 1st/early 2nd round talent. I didn’t like the pick because I didn’t think he would be an immediate help at a position we need immediate help.

3 words…R Mason Thomas. Banged that drum before the draft. KC got a steal again

His first game certainly nothing impressive.
He didn't really look explosive or powerful just kind of taking up space.
