No word on the money but we got ourselves legitimate talent at OLB, and obviously this is Staley’s area of expertise so I can assume he wanted Kyler.

welcome KF

wanna see the numbers but i like this move. good rotational piece that staley can probably maximize, and he's played a ton of special teams

6'5" 250#.
I see a possible backup for Bosa
at Rush Defensive End.
Uchenna and Egbule are 6'2"
StaleyD calls for lots of different looks.
I believe we can start looking for players with slightly different traits from those of current Charger defenders.
This would be at DT & DB.

Welcome to SoCal, Ky. Hope ya tear some shit up, so we can dust off that nickname (SACKrell)!

[Boltjolt]

He has had as many sacks in a season(10.5) as Mel has making 62 million.
Cmon Giants call Mel and after him 15 mil to keep pace with your other spending.

600 snap guy last year. 10 sacks on 600 snaps in 2018. Decent amount of QB hits each year. Good depth signing. Who know maybe this is our Floyd. Look at Leaonards numbers with the Bears. And his snap totals were much higher each year. Staley may turn this guy into a solid contributor.

Jarrett Johnson in his prime type. Set the edge. Fundamentally sound football. Missed 4 games last year.

He is nicknamed The Freak. Not sure why. Had 8 sacks in a 7 game stretch in 2018. 6 of those in 2 games. Ill take a player that puts up 2 3 sack games. Those will usually lead to wins.

When I first read the name I thought we bought a fracking expert! Let's hope to give the opposing coaches lots of Gas!

:Cheers1:

Sackrell...The Freak... either one works, as long as he lives up to it.

Giants breakdown. With some good tape.

https://www.giants.com/news/kyler-fa...ee-agency-2020

The Giants ranked 22nd in the NFL with 36 sacks in the 2019 season. They hope to improve that total with the signing of outside linebacker Kyler Fackrell. In four seasons with Green Bay, Fackrell recorded 16.5 sacks, including 10.5 in 2018.

Like another new Giant, inside backer Blake Martinez, Fackrell was coached by Giants defensive coordinator Patrick Graham when he was the Packers linebackers coach and run game coordinator in 2018. He played the most snaps of his career that season, 893 total, including 626 on defense. He has also played 782 special teams snaps the last three years.

Even though Fackrell is considered an outside linebacker, he is primarily used as an edge rusher. He is a bigger player at 6-5 and 245 pounds. He ran a 4.72 40-yard dash at the combine with a vertical jump of 34.5 inches and broad jump of 121 inches. He has 33-inch arms and has the athleticism and length teams are looking for in outside rushers.

His primary role was rushing the passer from either a two or three-point stance. In his last three seasons, he has 692 snaps rushing the passer and only 235 in coverage. In 2019, in 16 regular season games, he was only in coverage 82 times, which is about five times a game. When he drops in coverage, it is primarily in short zone near the line of scrimmage.

Fackrell played right outside linebacker on 880 plays in the 3-4 in his last three seasons for the Packers. He also played 481 snaps on the left side, so he should be comfortable playing either for the Giants in 2020.

Even though Fackrell has one outlier sack season in 2018, his other pass rushing peripheral numbers were consistent the past three seasons. Despite going from three sacks in 2017 to 10.5 in 2018 and then to one in 2019, his overall pressure numbers remained similar.

Pro Football Focus tracks quarterback hits and hurries to supplement a player's sack totals in each season. They combine the three numbers to track total pressures created by players. Here are Fackrell's pressure stats in each of the last three seasons:

2019: 7 quarterback hits, 18 hurries, 26 total pressures in 211 pass rush snaps

2018: 1 quarterback hit, 12 hurries, 24 total pressures in 243 pass rush snaps

2017: 3 quarterbacks hits, 21 hurries, 27 total pressures in 238 pass rush snaps

The difference in 2018 was that Fackrell was able to convert some of those quarterback hits and hurries into sacks, often a product of him getting to the quarterback quicker than in 2017 and 2019. He also had fewer pass rushing attempts in 2019 because of the additions of Preston Smith and Za'Darius Smith, who were the Packers starting edge rushers.

When you look at Fackrell's tape, he displays the burst and speed to win outside, which helps set up some of his other moves to get to the quarterback. He gets home in a variety of ways that we will take a look at on the coaches' tape.

On this play against Ravens left tackle Austin Howard, Fackrell shows a speed move to the outside before quickly changing direction to get inside on his way to sacking Joe Flacco.
