[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1031831, member: 6578"] Concur that is his greatest attribute - IF playing him at Safety I could see him and Xavier potentially being special. Those that find it odd about DeJean's inability to play press man or man...remember press man and off man are desperately different. Even when Barry would call man coverages, we'd see Jaire provide a seven yard cushion as told to do...that is how Cooper played nearly every snap. I say nearly every but I know I watched a few games where I never saw him closer than six/seven yards off scrimmage if aligned outside. He is a GIFTED corner if playing a lot of zone and soft coverage calls - if playing more man and especially press man, you're asking him to do something he's never been asked to do. Now the big question for a team like say us, is do you draft Cooper and plan on more safety role and off man but perhaps scouts and Hafley have seen enough to think the footwork or growth is there to be serviceable in press man????? I struggle to see that personally and is why from the go I had him as my #1 Safety. I can get on board with the logic of drafting him Day1, won't mean he is the firstor even second guy I'd take - but he's a first round graded player without blinking. [/QUOTE]
