He's living the life

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Indeed Matty

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Good for him. Hopefully he gets into med school. I gotta say though, if I was in his shoes, I'd just focus on the businesses he has going with the blog creation, etc.

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

He's the most famous brother in DC since Billy Carter.

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Pretty good read.

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Funny that the article says Tanner Cooley has no desire to be famous, yet he agreed to have his mug plastered on the front cover of Washington Post Magazine. Something isn't jiving there, Tanner.

Tanner was a real ass when he was posting on this site.

Absolutely not. That's the point.

Although it's not like he's mooching and being a slug doing nothing. Seems like he's working hard and is pretty ambitious. But when he says he has no desire to be famous... Um yeah. Gotta call BS on that one.

another person getting famous for nothing, I.E Paris Hilton

Well we've all linked to, praised, fawned over Cooley's blog. That's almost entirely the work of Tanner. And props to him for pursuing medical school. It's not his fault he's Cooley's brother and there are worse things he could be doing with that fame

Good point...why all the hate for this guy from some people here?

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Explain please.....how?

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Good for him for creating a career off of the second best tight end on the team.

Funny you say that, I was going to create a thread about how I thought FD was better than CC but was scared of having to deal with the MCCF (Man Crush Cooley Fans).

Springs said that the only day they covered him was the day he slept in.

It seems to me that NOBODY can cover this guy. If Jason had any time I firmly believe he could put up Gonzalez and Gates type numbers.

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

He's already putting up those numbers, What could he do with a running game and a QB with time...

Fred Davis' bro is making a name for himself on this site. And Tanner has posted here

I saw we have a Bro Down!

I always thought that they acted a bit too defensively on the blog but idk

hahaha, in for this

Re: Tanner Cooley making a name for himself in DC
 

Davis has a world of talent no doubt, and his upside looks tremendous. Comparing Cooley to Davis right now though, CC is clearly much more polished overall.

More polished yes, but thats what you expect with a 5 year veteran. If Davis continued as the #1 TE for the next 3 years, I think we all agree he'd easily surpass Cooley. If compensation were equal and there's no salary cap next year, there is no question Cooley would be the one traded.

No doubt about this but Davis' physical abilities are off the charts compared to Cooley. Cooley is pretty close to his ceiling while Davis may just be scratching the surface.

Some people forget, he was the #1 receiving option for a USC team that was arguably the best in the nation.

I wish Davis had caught that first touchdown.... Then we never would have had to see that idiotic fake field goal.

It would have been a very difficult catch. Watching the replay, it looked like he was looking at the goal line and not making sure he secured the ball. Still, a very close call. he ALMOST had it.

Definitely a tough catch but he had it for a second... I had a faint glimmer of hope when it was in his hands.
