'15 ATH Chance Bishop (Kennedale)

BillySee58 · May 8, 2014

6'5" 280 lb jumbo athlete from Kennedale. Plays tight end, where he was 1st team all district 6-3A a year ago. At his size could project to offensive tackle as well, but this may be a potential road-grading tight end that Mac likes. A 6th offensive lineman type. We are his first offer.

Highlights:

Yeah I like this guy. Keep him at TE. He runs a 5.0, for that height and weight that's not too bad. He could be a threat in the intermediate passing game if he has hands.

Highlights show he caught a few passes when wide open with no one in his face.

I think college LB's and safety's would rough him up.

Judging his ability is not easy with just a few highlight clips.

I say keep him at OT or guard. Guard may be his best spot on the OL.

This guy is a road grader! Very good at using his hands for pull downs,

holding opponents at bay, and laying down on a opponent.

Has a nasty demeanor for sure! Blindsided one guy on a play when down field.

Wiped the guy out. True OL guy!

I hope the staff can sign this guy! Give him a fighting chance!

The thing about him playing tight end for us is that he wouldn't need to go out for very many passes. If Chumley ends up moving to tight end, that's your passing threat at tight end for the future. This guy would be like Andrew Power or a taller Drew Miller, where you aren't asking much from them in the passing game. You wouldn't need him to do much more than catch wide open passes when the defense is sleeping on him and block.

Plus, we could see the coaches trim him down a little bit and focus on his speed, while keeping his weight at a decent number so it could still be an advantage. The coaches got Reinhardt down from I believe the 280s when he came in down to the 250s. Could see something similar with this kid, if we're lucky enough to land him.

Well we're his first offer. Get this guy in here now. Versatility in a football player is always a great commodity to have. Beef him up for a guard position or drop 15 pounds and let him manhandle the smaller D-ends in CUSA.
