Film breakdown: Giants add TWO undrafted offensive linemen

The New York Giants failed to add an offensive lineman in the 2024 NFL Draft. Some fans expressed dismay that Joe Schoen and the Giants did not make a young investment into an offensive line room that has significantly struggled for the better half of a decade.

Schoen added five veteran free-agent offensive linemen, and two undrafted free agents were added after the draft: Missouri’s Marcellus Johnson and North Dakota State’s Jake Kubas.

Johnson is a 6-foot-4, 313-pound offensive lineman with 10-inch hands, 33¼-inch arms, and an 83¼-inch wingspan. He played four years at Eastern Michigan before transferring to Missouri, where he was a swing offensive lineman who played only 84 snaps for the Tigers. Johnson played 2,286 snaps at left tackle, 35 at right guard, and 33 at right tackle.

Johnson surrendered 55 pressures and 11 sacks, nine of which came in the final two seasons at Eastern Michigan (2021 and 2022). He was penalized six times in college.

Kubas is a shade under 6-4, 308 pounds, with just 32⅝-inch arms and small 8⅞-inch hands. He’s not physically imposing but he plays with high energy and, similar to Johnson, has good quickness off the snap. Kubas played 2,483 snaps at right guard and 106 at left guard.

Kubas spent five seasons at North Dakota State. He only surrendered 23 pressures and two sacks in his career with 13 penalties, eight of which happened in 2023.
