Beerball Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 they didn't offer him a contract afterward, they just had him in for a "tryout" so they could have someone eligible to throw at rookie camp. What I meant was they didn't sign him for that right away. I think it was a few days after the draft. He was IIRC "treated differently." We may be saying the same thing, I'm not sure. Kenny G was an unsigned invitee to the rookie camp compared to the other UDFA's who had signed with the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Anyone watch Chandler play and can provide insight? Seems like a promising signing since we need OTs. I will invite the other Raleigh/Durham locals to chime in...this is from watching NC State games this year. The last two years he has been strictly a RT he has a massive frame with super long arms--even for his height. This makes him tough to get around. He uses his leverage and strength well in the run game but is slow to get into pass blocking position--relying too much on his arms -- which likely won't cut it in the pros. I can't ever recall seeing him to get to the second level in the run game. So bottom line -- More of an interior prospect than a tackle to me but lets see what happens.

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) writeup on Cedric Reed http://www.buffalobillsdraft.com/2014/09/2015-nfl-draft-prospect-to-watch-cedric-reed-de-texas/ One attribute that is impossible to abdicate from Reed is his wingspan. His arms allow him to reach for the tackle when others simply cannot. He has well above average length and upper body strength, and it masks his lack of ideal quickness and burst.
