S Chris Reis Flying Under the Radar?

Bergeaux · 05-05-2007, 02:46 PM

Chris Reis just played in a game today and he had several tackles, at least 1 pass defended and 1 fumble recovery. He looked really good. Tough tackler and pretty good in the secondary. (gotta take the level of competition into account though.)

If he can continue to play like this and do well in TC, he very well could make it on the roster this year.

I really like the way the kid plays.

We really need another SS behind Harper that won't get us killed again. Bellamy did ok in a pinch, but they cut him earlier in the year for a reason. Hopefully our front 7 is better this year and the SS won't have to play down in the box so much.

Good point about the front 7; it especially applies to the line. We need more production (ie tackles) from Smith, Thomas & Young, and less reliance on the DB's.

My god, Stoutmire, Thomas and Craft were 6th, 7th, & 9th in tackles, and Bullocks was Third.

The kid is playing good on the other side of the pond thats all I know. Cinci was deep at S before FA and now are scrambling to fill the void. I am going to be watching him at camp thats for sure.

Actually I think Reis had 10+ solo tackles and at least 2 assists to go along with the fumble recovery and passes defensed. Several of those tackles were hard as the ball carrier got up very slow. Kid is getting better each week.
