Am I crazy or is this kid gonna make the squad? If he can prove himself on ST, I can see him as the #5 WR edging out Benn. He catches everything, but what has impressed me thus far is his route running. Very smooth and doesn't seem to get rattled by press coverage. I cannot wait to see this kid in the pre-season. He is standing out to me big time in just a couple practices.
I keep hearing his name over and over
I have him as my sleeper to make the roster this year. He's going to have to cut his teeth on special teams though. Either covering kicks or as a returner if he wants to make the squad. At a minimum, he's a lock to make the PS right now.
Is he Charles Sharon or Allen Hurns?
I'm excited to see this kid play. If nothing else, he would give us options at arguably one of our strongest positions. Maybe seeing him have a strong preseason would allow us to move one of our veteran WR's and a mid round pick for a good veteran LT.
So far the camp MVP. We know how that usually goes... Still, pulling for the dude. He appears to be the real deal. The good news is that most of the receivers have been ballin!
Benn is a great ST player so I'd imagine Cole will hit the pactice squad...and probably won't last long there at all

Caldwell had shown a tendency to use IR to stash guys. If Cole is any good he might get a really bad hangnail come September and need to sit out the season.

Yes, if he looks this good he won't risk losing him on the PS to a Cleveland type team. Can they IR him and work with him all year?
Good pllayers are often abot to hide on the PS, so I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the possibility. I'd wager to say he would stick, but I too am wondering about his chances. I still like the speed that Kenneth Walker brings to the table, and the overall potential that Amba Etta-Tawo posseses, but I've moved Keelan ahead of the two and more, and I see Keelan as an ideal flanker.
Here's my current WR rankings...
- Allen Robinson
- Marquis Lee
- Allen Hurns
- Arrelious Benn
- Dede Westbrook
- Keelan Cole
- Rashad Greene
- Shane Wynn
- Amba Etta-Tawo
- Kenneth Walker
- Larry Pinkard
- Jamal Robinson

Typically happens proceeding the draft.

I know UDFA's are usually signed after the draft.. hence the term 'Undrafted', I just don't remember this kid being signed. Was he a part of when we signed a big chunk of players in quick succession? If so, his name probably bypassed me. That's all.
