Kyler Reed

[Axl_sued_me]

I know since he was in Orlando, and probably reunited with his Disney Channel's High School Musical fellow cast-members, that is NO excuse to have as many dropped passes and missed blocks as he did.

Kyler must be more consistent next year, we will need him for our O to win games. His drop today hurt.

 

[n.e.husker]

His inability to block or sustain blocks really hurts.

Ben was our best TE this year.

 

[NUance]

Last year Kyler had about the surest hands on the team. This year, not. What's up with that?

I love Reed as a receiver but he's got to be at least servicable as a blocker. Either that or move him to a slot receiver so he's not trying to block DEs or OLBs (as much).

He isn't even that good of a receiver this year?

That.

He is a match-up issue if Beck can dictate the match-up (like Dallas Clark for Indy).

But, as with all the recievers -- No ONE knows where T-Mart's pass is going. That means the WRs/TEs are thinking about where the ball will be as opposed to knowing it will be on target. And that is a HUGE issue.

If you have played receiver you know what I mean.

 

[The Architect]

Hell, he didn't have many balls thrown his way all year!! Yet I was surprised when he dropped that ball. I hope he's used better this year cause I think the kid can catch the rock.

 

[Mavric]

He didn't get many balls thrown his way but he was pretty good when he did. I'm betting his lack of playing time was mostly due to poor blocking.

 

[TonyStalloni]

His lack of playing time was due to injury which was stated after the Iowa game. He had a hamstring that hampered him severely if I remember. The 5 weeks off probably did him good but he had some rust on him yesterday.

Kyler - criminally under-utilized.

Everyone has their drops, you know. Even Nate Swift had his. The difference is he was a huge asset in the passing game that was utilized, the way we slung it around in those years (and by 'slung it around', I mean 50/50, more or less). Put him on this year's team, he watches a psas or two bump off his hands and I guarantee everybody is deriding him as some joker who can't catch a cold.

Honestly, who cares if his blocking is subpar. Make use of the fact that he is a tremendous mismatch every dang time he is on the field. That is something that not many players can offer. Exploit it!

Haha...coaches that know football do. A lot. Especially if they want a "run-first" offense. I'll take Cotton anyday......

 

[zoogs]

There's room for both, you know...
