Round 7

Cade Mays, OT/OG, Tennessee – 6-5, 320

Cade Mays would provide good depth, but he will likely never be a starter in the NFL – unless it is to fill in for an injured player for one or two games.  He is a bit overrated by some analysts and underrated by others.

Despite playing tackle at Georgia and Tennessee, Mays is definitely a guard candidate at the next level.  As a guard, he is able to be a lead blocker on rushing plays and Mays can be an adequate pass protector.  He may need a year on the practice squad, but there is a small chance of him being a bust.  He has the size most scouts like, but his skillsets need some work.

Joshua Kaindoh, OLB/DE, Florida St. – 6-7, 245

Welcome to Charles Snowden-Light.  Like Snowden, Kaindoh is 6-7 and quite tall for an outside linebacker.  Yes, his frame is lanky as well, but it is a bit filled out more than what we see from Snowden.  Kaindoh could add about 10 pounds of muscle and he would still be the same player.

He may do better as a defensive end at the next level but will need at least two years to have any kind of impact in the NFL.  He’s likely a practice squad candidate who could work his way into the lineup later in year two.  If Kaindoh is considered more of an outside linebacker, the development could take a bit longer.  His long term potential for either position is 50-50 at best.
