Good to see Cole doing well after not staying in Columbus and getting injured early in the year.

That is good to hear. Glad to see Cole still snagging passes left and right.
The Alaskan Assassin!

Its a shame this kid isn't in the NFL... kid runs good routes, goes over the middle, and catches everything... what more do you want from a guy?
I think coaches don't believe he is as athletic as other wide recievers.
If character and skill sets other than perceived speed are my top requirements... I'll take a whole receiving corps of Magners.

While I agree with you, NFL Scouts want two things Cole doesn't have enough of - size and speed.
Congrats to Cole, though.

Exactly what I was going to say. If Cole could not beat out Atlanta's pathetic wide receivers he can't play in the NFL anywhere.
