Joe Cooper
Joe Cooper projects as an undrafted free agent priority with developmental upside as a reserve offensive tackle. His college tape from Slippery Rock shows functional movement and adequate length, but he lacks the elite athleticism and competitive tape required for Day 3 consideration. Teams seeking depth at tackle with patient development timelines may find value in Cooper as a camp body with starting experience at FCS level.
Cooper's substandard composite grade reflects significant athleticism deficiencies—lack of lateral quickness and vertical explosion—that will be exposed at the NFL level. Playing at Slippery Rock (FCS level) means limited exposure to Power 5 pass rushers, raising serious questions about whether his tape translates when competition fundamentally improves. His ceiling appears capped as a reserve; lack of special teams value compounds the risk.
