He was a marginal backup when healthy. I think he's earned the chance to prove that he's worth veteran minimum. That's about it.
Pro football is a cruel business. Cordle will be 27 when the season begins. If he were going to be a good NFL center, we would have seen it before the injury.
Where you wish you could be a fly on the wall in the coaches room to get an inkling of what in the hell they saw in him to decide to keep him around for 4 frickin yrs. Just a complete head scratcher.
We see a lot of this during the preseason games when our guys look very overmatched against other teams' reserves during the second halves of these games.
Cruz the exception of course...
There had been a lot of comments over the past few months Â
One of my Buckeyes but this is the NFL. His 2 penalties on the wedge @ the Skins in'12 instrumental , along with Beatty's holding call in the same game and Barden's OPI in Philadelphia, in costing the Giants the division. But how many of the respondents called for the O-Line coach to be fired during '13? He's a smart guy who is team-first & doesn't give anybody any trouble. There was nobody else so they put him in. But he can't play.
It is rumored that when asked 'Why a certain player was not tendered?' Â

Hyno
Cordle
sound like no tender.
Da'Rell Scott I'll assume no.
Paysinger is the only other RFA and I think he may get an original round tender (as a UDFA).
Dallas Reynolds is an ERFA
all according to over the cap.
Decent moves and non-moves by the team.
(just kidding...i couldn't keep a straight face on that one).
