Yes, those are guys that usually have quick feet, Marinelli likes that.

You are invoking the name of the great Ben Bass. Tread lightly.

Here's a story on his background

http://profootballspot.com/nfl-draf...coe-from-junior-college-to-the-nfl-draft-r80/

Coe says now of that senior year in high school, "I wasn't the smartest, ACT scores came out, I didn't score high enough. That's why I had to go to junior college." Coe ultimately was forced to go to Iowa Western Community College, where he played two seasons for the Reivers. When he arrived, it was back to old habits in the offensive backfield, but things had changed: "Once I found I was going to junior college, I kinda got in a little downer stage and I just did my own thing, which was I picked up probably 25-30 pounds of weight going to junior college. So then, first year of junior college, I played running back at 260." Coe had 80 carries for 468 yards and 8 TDs that year.

The next season, reality shifted again for the young man. "Like they say, you gain your freshman 30, I gained my freshman 30, so then I got up to 290, and that's when they let me know, 'You definitely aren't playing running back any more!'" he joked with a laugh. The high school All-American Bowl participant at linebacker was developed at defensive line, capable of playing inside or outside.

That versatility and athletic talent drew some attention from Division I programs, and after Iowa Western completed a 12-0 season, topped with a Junior College National Championship victory, interest in Coe only increased. He ultimately stayed inside the state of Iowa, committing to the Iowa State Cyclones. He started four games and totaled 36 tackles for a 3-9 squad, before his attitude got him into trouble again.

In March of 2014 following the season, Coe was dismissed from the program after an undisclosed violation of team rules. To this day, he still regrets it. "Until Iowa State, I was one of those dudes coming from high school who was the best player on the team and I really didn't have any discipline. Going to junior college, it was kind of still the same way. I had a little discipline but not really, so I did my own thing. And then I was in that same mood at Iowa State. I was just one of those players who put themselves before the team, broke the rules, and one of those guys I guess you would say was a cancer to the team." For the third time in three years, Coe found himself without a football home.

With all of this history going for him, hard to imagine why on earth he might not be successful.

Also sounds like he is going to be babysat by another ISU problem child. You know, just in case.

Coe was out of shape on that training camp live. They did bag drills 4 times and he was bent over and unable to catch wind. This isn't baseball or bowling.

Explosive for his size and pretty quick for a NT. I like his upside. Word is he's strong as an ox

Marine likes those. Melton was a RB, too.

That body type won't last. Wait until halfway through preseason.

He doesn't put a bit of work in before camp and he probably even see the preseason.

He doesn't look little bit out of shape , a lot , LOL ...

I saw the video , he seems to have power but needs to get in shape before contending for spot .has to reduce that paunch. He was out of gas after a few min into the drills

They are going to keep him until final cuts even if just to keep other guys from too many reps. It doesn't make sense to cut him early anyway unless you just feel like you found another better player that currently isn't on the roster and you need to make room.

Interesting.

Maybe he felt kind of pooped looking at New Englands balls.

Coe's a Rookie Free Agent.

Worry about Randy "Jeffrey" Gregory and ADDLaw, not a rookie free agent that represents a free look and a camp body, nothing more invested than giving the dog a bone.

Hopefully Rodney doesn't bury his bone, everyone knows a dog needs a home.

Lol, Jeffery. "When life throws you a Jeffery just rub the fury wall"

JJ has hired an OB/GYN to the staff, for as long as needed

My god. That single picture will be his downfall. It's like that dopey picture of Quincy Carter in sweat pants, or Jeb being called "low energy." It's a defining moment of his career and it hasn't even started.

True, but do think Coleman could easily have replaced Hayden's production last year (I know, who couldn't?

); maybe even improve it a bit bc he has strength. Am glad Rod was forced to cut the umbilical cord w/the Thornton signing (ty SJ/JJ).
