Draft Day NFL Draft 2024 Day 2

[The Quest for Six]

Kneeland, Edge

 

[Adreme]

I feel like after all that the next pick also has to be in by now.

 

[Kwyn]

That’s a surprise

 

[chasecooley5308]

Marshawn Kneeland. Who is that??

never heard of her

 

[Tabascocat]

no audio or just me?

 

[Sydla]

What the hell is that pick?

We drafted a depth guy at DE with a premium pick.

I came away fine with what they did last night but I knew they were gonna piss away the goodwill tonight.

round two projection

 

[GroundZero1970]

Waste

 

[CowboyStar88]

I have no opinion on the player, but LB, RB, DT are huge needs. What are they doing? Gonna lose out of a decent LB and RB.

I don't know who this is, soooo boo?

Draft Projection
Round 2

Overview​

Kneeland is a former high school tight end and his open-field agility can be seen when he’s pursuing the football around the field. He deals consequential first blows to opponents that often create openings for him to generate movement as a run defender or pass rusher. Teams might drop him in as a 4-3 base end, but he’s actually a more consistent playmaker when he’s standing, surveying and using his athleticism rather than fist-fighting at the point of attack. He’s a forceful rusher with a relatively simple game plan, but he does have enough bend to diversify somewhat. There are some mismatched pieces in his game but he offers toughness and talent to mold.

Strengths​

• Runs well and possesses agility to fluidly change directions.
• Plays with very heavy hands and makes his first hit count.
• Motor stays engaged and he’s down to chase plays all over the field.
• Sifts through moving bodies and latches into running back with good wrap.
• Generates consistent pocket push with his bull rush.
• Capable of playing with a hand down or standing.

Weaknesses​

• Needs to diversify his rush attack and add a little more finesse.
• Can improve at stacking moves and setting up rush counters.
• Struggles to consistently hold the point when playing with his hand down.
• Room for improvement with hands in stacking and controlling tight ends.
• Gets pads turned and can be washed away against zone blocks

Meh.

 

[J12B]

I like it.

This is Lawrence's last year.

 

[Playmaker3128]

high motor player. Kinda like it

 

[Carson]

Lost Armstrong and Fowler so it's not a terrible pick, especially considering the centers worth picking were snagged up.

Problem is he fits the Golston / Fehoko mold. Not great, but can play multiple positions

 

[John813]

RIP FEHOKO lol

 

[ShortRound]

 

[texbumthelife]

That’s it for me, boys. This offseason is an unmitigated disaster that should cost a GM their career. But it won’t. Because the GM is the owner and his son.

Disgusting.

 

[charron]

Dallas drafts for measurable that haven't translated into on the field production. So far they've drafted back to back busts

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

What the hell is that pick?

We drafted a depth guy at DE.

Pretty much….D Law replacement….
