Chiefs to bring in VCU basketball player for visit

He explained what each player did and how it all came together. ESPN's Mike Rothstein recently wrote about Alie-Cox's possible fit with the Lions, and quoted Fells in the process. Not enough to draw interest from the National Basketball Association - but at 6-foot-7, and with a 7-1 wingspan, he has the measurables to intrigue NFL teams as a tight end.

A sign-in sheet at the indoor facility listed 35 scouts credentialed to attend Alie-Cox's workout.

The next step is for Alie-Cox to pick a team. He won't have to wait for the draft - he's officially a free agent, as he was eligible to be chosen in last year's draft but was not. I'm kind of in great shape already. "I know this is going to be something new, and there will be a huge learning curve". If one of the 30 scouts had the power and desire to sign him Tuesday and the terms were good enough for Alie-Cox and his agent Joe Flanagan, he could have potentially signed, though this is not the way these signings happen. Most importantly, Alie-Cox ran routes and caught passes.

Guess who was at his workout? "His hands are very big". It was originally thought that he might be eligible for this year's draft but that ultimately wasn't the case.

Alie-Cox, then, wouldn't endanger the jobs of Fells or Eric Ebron any time soon.

His vertical jump of 35.5 inches and his 3-cone drill time of 7.25 seconds would have placed him about seventh out of the tight ends at this year's National Football League combine, numbers that won't turn heads, but will count as more than satisfactory given his lack of training. "He said if it's something I wanted to do I should look into it". Chiefs GM John Dorsey is turning over every stone. You can bet that he will get offers, and it will be up to him to determine which team gives him the best shot to make the transition.

While Alie-Cox is done playing basketball, he's still seen occasionally on campus. He is scheduled to graduate with a master's degree in criminal justice on May 13th.
