TEAM SESSION: MIKE DANNA, DL, MICHIGAN
Mike Danna has prospered all week banging heads with the East's outgunned interior offensive line which will call into question exactly what Danna could be at the next level. He's a natural athlete and flashed in the first team period with pass rush disruption as a speed package interior rusher. I’m not sure he's a permanent player in any specific role at this point — a dilemma that may ultimately impact his draft stock. But there's a foundation here that can be worked on and the team session was Danna's exclamation point. He was routinely slashing into gaps and flashing across the quarterback's face.

The Chiefs realize most teams are going to try to compete with them by getting faster, so we're covering our entire team with speed and explosion.

Apparently the giants were interested in him.

Quote:

As first reported on the GiantsExtra Text Service, the Giants have been in close contact with Michigan defensive end Mike Danna, according to an individual with knowledge of the team’s plans.

Danna has communicated with members of the front office, and the coaching staff has been impressed.

Quote:

While just about anyone in the maize and blue locker room would tell you that Danna was the freakiest athlete in there — perhaps more so than enigmatic players such as Donovan Peoples-Jones — you have to believe it to see it. So, seeing a 260-something-pound defensive end jump like he’s DPJ should get some people’s attention.

Sassy Squatch 04-25-2020 01:49 PM

Pretty clear what Spags and the staff are looking for in the draft.

He has tools and a good athlete. May have been situation thing at Michigan that he didn’t get a chance to play to his strengths. Could be a scheme issue or playing in the big 10 probably gets you less opportunities to rush passer

Expanded roster.

DaneMcCloud 04-25-2020 02:06 PM

Danna, a graduate transfer from Central Michigan and former first-team all-Mid-American Conference selection at defensive end, totaled 38 tackles (three for a loss), three sacks, two quarterback hurries and a forced fumble in his one season at Michigan. He was last listed at 6 feet, 2 inches and 261 pounds, calling into question whether he should be an end or an outside linebacker.

Because Danna did not receive an invite to the combine, the Detroit native and Warren De La Salle Collegiate High School graduate did not receive a pre-combine evaluation from the NFL. It’s unclear what that means for his draft stock.

At Central Michigan: After redshirting his freshman year, Danna improved each season with the Chippewas in his second, third and fourth seasons. His tackle total respectively increased from 31 to 54 to 66, his tackles for loss improved from 4.5 to 8.5 to 15 and his sack total increased from 1.5 to 4 to 9.5. His redshirt junior season, he added three forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, ultimately being named first-team All-MAC and earning the team’s MVP award.

At the NFL Combine: Danna was not invited to the NFL Draft Combine, and was outspoken about his distaste for the snub. According to NJ.com, Danna ran a 4.77-second 40-yard dash.

Mock drafts and projections: Projected to go undrafted by every major mock draft, Danna is the No. 425 prospect in CBSSports’ rankings, He is the No. 39 edge rusher according to The Athletic’s Dane Brugler.

------------

He's a 5 year college football player with nice athleticism that didn't necessary spend his entire career against the best competition but put up nice numbers as a 5th year Senior at Michigan.

It sounds like Danna was a guy they didn't want to lose out on in the 6th or 7th, and didn't want to fight for during the UDFA madness, because they see something there and didn't want to take the risk.

Looks like a solid pass-rushing specialist that will absorb snaps this year.

Can be moved around the line but I suspect Spags wants him inside on pass-rushing downs..like he had Justin Tuck with NY Giants.

Lol no he isn’t. He was running the the starters and actually looked good in TC before getting hurt. He might be the surprise player this year. It’s not uncommon for year three to be the breakout year.
