Chris Chester OL Chester is a 300-pound offensive lineman who can play tight end, guard or center. He did the position drills only and lit the place up.

this guy is the C that ran really fast at the combine. unfortunately i haven't seen any game tape on him. apparently he plays really well without pads though, cause everyone liked him at the combine and the above quote (gil brandt) from his pro day also seems good.

he's 303lbs and has a 4.83 40 time, which is slightly below the 4.75 of average TEs, but he's 40lbs heavier... i imagine his vertical isn't so hot though. (6'3.3" hgt, 31.5" vert, the average of drafted TEs this year is close to 6'4" and 35" vert)

backing up the OL while also playing as your blocking TE... might not be a bad idea, though an OG/OT backup is much more important than a guy who can only play OG.

as far as OG/OT backups, i still like spencer early (OG 352, 5.28 40, 2nd-3rd - heavier and .3 faster than doc at his combine, played 2 years of DT 1 at LG and 1 at LT in college, his talent level is above his draft status since he still needs some technique work), and jahri evans late (OG 335 5.27, forget who pointed him out) and maybe joe toledo late (OT 337 5.11, 4-5).
