+ can play both LT and RT (in fact his college team made their tackles switch side several times during games), exceptional footwork, good pass protecter, nasty guy in the run game, super long arms, really good at re-establishing him self and moving his feet, hard to get around in the pass game, fluid, good balance
- could be more immediately impactful with his first hit, never wins with his first punch, lets guys get too close to him because he's a bit late with his hands, panics a little bit sometimes against speed
Cooley finished his breakdown saying he's talented enough to be a week 1 starter! (This is not what we drafted him for, but this could be turn out to be a great pick).

That is very exciting news! The draft day deal to move down in the 2nd and pick up a 3rd is looking very smart, indeed. We end up with Guice and Christian. Nice!
