Ed Reynolds, S, Philadelphia Eagle

[rjs246]

This is totally a fine fifth round pick. If he's good enough to start eventually, great. If he contributes on ST he'll be just like every other fifth rounder. It's suspect because Chip's coached against him just like every other player they ever draft, but totally fine.

Reynolds Wrap? 

I can see right through what you're trying to do there. you'll see the player has good length if he doesn't get cut first. good with keeping outside contain. very good in coverage. drops down in the box and is difficult to move.

All of that.  Plus I heard his g/f dumped him because he's too clingy.

and she did not feel her children were safe playing with him.
back to football. seals the edge well to prevent runs down the side. prevents fast receivers from taking the lid off the defense. will change up look and foil coverage.
