David Knevel’s rare 6-9 frame and tackle/guard versatility made him a high-upside Nebraska lineman
Knevel stood out at Nebraska because of his unusual size, positional flexibility, and pro-caliber frame: Huskers.com listed him at 6-9, 315 pounds and noted he could play both guard and tackle despite working through an early-season injury. He was also rated the CFL’s top draft prospect at one point, which underscores how well his traits translated beyond college. The fit question is simple: if you need a long, physical lineman with developmental upside and the ability to cover multiple spots, Knevel is the kind of body you bet on.
