Daily #NFLDraft Prospect Gamefilm Breakdown

Lucas Niang Right Tackle #77
6’7 328lbs Image
Lucas needs a little work with his feet, seems like he’s not used to kicking back with his his right foot. Does a good job of controlling his body and getting his hands on the rusher. Giving the QB a clean pocket. #KroenickFilm
Perfect rep from Niang here, has a long/quick kickback giving him the space to welcome the rusher from any direction. Gets his hands inside the rushers chest pads and nullifies the rusher useless. Note Niang doesn’t look balance at all, in control. #KroenickFi
Then Niang puts out a rep like this, no kickback with his right foot. Looks like a DB in a outright back pedal, losing any balance or power from his base. Stops his feet and stands up the rusher, lucky for Niang the QB ran around him. #KroenickFilm
Niang moves his left foot first inside of his initial step being a long kickback with his right foot. He recovers well however with the help of the guard to double team the edge rusher. #KroenickFilm
Niang showcases his potential as a tackle on this rep, you see the hesitation with his feet but recovers well. Gains control of the rusher with his arms and uses his body to separate QB/RUSHER. #KroenickFilm
Niang shows his strong hands here of jamming the defenders arms. You can see the defender struggle to break free from his grasp. #KroenickFilm
Niang initial step with his left foot helps him open up his stance to welcome contact to inside(left). This comes naturally to Niang, he easily takes control with his length and hands. #KroenickFilm
Great pass rep from Niang here, first step is a long kickback and takes away the outside rush lane. Ball gets out quick. #KroenickFilm
Niang looks like a pro Right Tackle in this rep, has complete control and perfect footwork. #KroenickFilm
Only show this rep because Niang shows his willingness to commit to it, shows he’s learning on the go and progressing well. #KroenickFilm
Great pass rep here. Showcases his feet, hands, and balance. #KroenickFilm
Niang is very athletic, even though he’s used to go going to going left at first he does well at recovering to his left. Punching the edge defender going inside and surprising Niang but he maintains control with his length. #KroenickFilm
Example of Niangs pass set with bad footwork with his initial step. #KroenickFilm
Niang steps upfield and hits the edge defender hard, helping the guard with a combo block. #KroenickFilm
Niang fires low out of his stance on a rare zone run play, establishes his hands inside of the defenders chest and moving down the LOS. He’s athletic for his size. #KroenickFilm
When Niang doesn’t start out with a long kickback with his right foot he puts himself and QB in a very dangerous position. Narrowly the QB dodges the edge rusher who gets passed Niang because of his poor footwork initially. #KroenickFilm
Niang shows his potential on the pass play close to his goal line. Matches up his body with the rusher and uses his arms and length to control. #KroenickFilm
Niang shows off his length and Strength on this combo block with the TE. They bully the edge defender almost 8 yards off the LOS. #KroenickFilm
Niang fires out of his stance and gets his hands on the defender but struggles to maintain control of the defender. Thus, leading to Niang not moving the defender and getting no yards. #KroenickFilm
6.7/10
Lucas Niang shows he possesss all the tools Necessary (34” Arms) to succeed at the next level but needs to work hard to get there. I don’t see that being a problem in the future.
