Cooper Darling

Thick, filled-out frame with wide lower half and broad shoulders. Strong base, but with some room to add muscle. Holds up blocks well and maintains active feet through contact. Forceful punch off the snap, with the ability to recognize defensive approach and counter to maintain pad level. Decent flexibility and physical upside. Can bend to sustain leverage and push back defenders. Absorbs momentum in pass-rush situations and consistently holds his ground. Could improve overall athleticism and mobility, particularly in the run game when required to reach the second level. Potential multi-year starter at the Power Five level and could generate interest from NFL Draft scouts
