Acme Packing Company on Mark Redman
From the article
We have a big strong man who can move men out of their gaps in the run game and hold up on the edge in pass protection. It's a limited skillset, but he looks to be very good at both of those things... an elite blocking TE with a little nuance as a route runner is a welcome addition to any offense. I certainly don't have high hopes for production this season.
STACKED’s take
Elite blocking TE with limited receiving role; fits Packers' zone run and boot scheme.
Redman (6'6", 263 lb, 4.95 40-time, 24 years old) was acquired by the Packers as a blocking-first tight end with limited receiving upside. Film review shows elite in-line blocking and gap-moving ability on run plays, solid pass protection against edge defenders, but limited receiving skills—mainly operating within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage on quick game concepts and boot routes. His lack of speed will keep him in a limited role, though the Packers' zone-oriented run scheme and boot-heavy passing game can work to his strengths. The source does not project high production this season but views him as a functional addition whose blocking opens up play-calling.
