Regarding Cole at X vs Z, however, our prior dialogue is the deciding factor. The Z is allowed to line up off the line and "get a step" on the defender should he press at the line. 

Still - Cole was used at the X some in 2017 and to some success. I expect he'll get some looks there (if limited)  - especially if he improves beating the jam.
I agree a viable strategy for him might be to use him at Z until he can consistently beat the jam at the LOS.

But to continue my point about him being more of a deep threat than a possession receiver, he had long catches of:

52 yards against the Colts
28 yards against the Bengals
36 yards against the Chargers
24 yards against the Cardinals
32 yards against the Colts
75 yards against the Seahawks
73 yards against the Texans
32 yards against the 49ers
45 yards against the Steelers in the playoff game
26 yards against the Patriots in the AFC title game

In most of those games, the catch represented the long reception for the game for the team.


I know it’s easy to play with statistics, but if you take out one of those big 79-yarders, his overall figures take a big dip.

I think that while his first year’s production is encouraging, it’s far too small a sample to project from.

What happens, for instance, if Moncrief becomes the preferred option for those long hoofs downfield?

Who knows though, he’s not done much wrong so far...
