Scouting Report: The Pros And Cons Of TE Zach Gentry

New series we’ll conduct throughout the offseason. A review of individual players’ seasons, looking at their good, bad, role, and future with the team.

Returning to this series after a free agency break, a breakdown of TE Zach Gentry.

Zach Gentry – Tight End (Entering 4th Season)

Pros: Rare height for a tight end. Added weight and filled out frame with good length (over 34 inch arms). Looks like a small offensive tackle. Much-improved blocker who has bettered pad level and doesn’t play so high/tall. Able to block 4-3 ends in run game and controls point of attack well.
