Scouting Report: Strengths
- Chandler does a nice job working with teammates to build the pocket, anchoring against bull rushers and displaying good awareness against stunts and twists.
- He thrives on physicality, often out-grappling bigger defensive linemen and winning in the phone booth with tenacity and upper-body strength.
- Shows excellent awareness when presented with stunts and blitzes, and Chandler works well with teammates on combo blocks
- When his hand placement is right, he has the strong grip that allows him to manhandle opponents. Chandler plays with a mean streak and keeps the nastiness going through the whistle.
- Takes much more pride in the run game, where he plays through the whistle with tremendous physicality.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- More of a waist bender with subpar feet, and Chandler too often ends up reaching and lunging when going against quickness.
- Often gets too high in his sets, sacrificing some of his power, and he doesn’t show great coordination between his upper and lower body when sliding back in pass protection.
- Attacks when necessary, though he won't consistently dominate and can lose balance overextending.
- Not physically imposing and has average overall strength. Upper body gets over his feet too often and he easily loses his balance.
