@TomLuginbill Tom, opinion of 2015 ATH Brian Cole? Plays for a bad team so film isn't outstanding. Thoughts of him + his best position?
— Jacob Nye (@jacobnye22) September 24, 2014It is really easy to like Brian Cole athletically. He can flat out run and already possesses impressive measurables that are only going to get better. Defensively, he needs to become a little more football savvy, disciplined and show more consistent production. He is much more college-ready on the offensive side of the football, but his skillset will tempt coaches to play him on defense. He has ball skills and a natural feel for the game. We don’t know if he has natural RB instincts and can be too much of an upright runner, but Cole has the look of a wide receiver in his movement skills. The defensive side is where we feel he has the most upside because he can run and he has ideal size/strength/range combination. You are right, he stands out against this level of competition for sure.
