8) Scouting Report of Safety Jimmy Cooks
The positives:
Jimmy Cooks brings a lot of speed to the table. He has the ability to cover everything inside the numbers and potentially make a play near the sideline if he can get a beat on the throw. His agility gives him the ability to recover if he misses a cut when covering man to man. Also allows him to break away from his assignment and make a play somewhere else on the field. Overall, his athleticism should be something that GMs should pay attention to.
The negatives:
Jimmy Cooks is liable to be looked off by opposing quarterbacks. While his athleticism can bail him out of trouble most of the time, there are times when the ball is thrown to the opposite side of the field that he is drifting too. And that athleticism may not hold up as well at the next level. He will need time and coaching to really be able to see the field as well as you would want a pro safety to be able to.
Overall, Jimmy Cooks does need some coaching to really make an impact at the next level, but he has the potential to become a star player in this league for a long time.
