Maybe so, but he doesn't look like it when he runs. Wilson just looks quicker on the edge. Nick does have some break away speed once in the open.
I'm still amazed that Nick Marshall gets so much hype as a cornerback or safety. We've seen him run, we've seen him pass. He was a quarterback all through high school (set passing records), in Junior College and at Auburn. He was only a cornerback one year at Georgia. I think he's an exceptional athlete and scouts agree, but it's a tall task to ask him to make the switch after player there one year since being in high school.

I was thinking the same thing. I didn't know how playing qb for as long as he has would translate over to being a DB in the NFL. Not sure about his hands, but maybe a slot receiver if not a shot at qb.

Wtc is up with folks not thinking Coop is fast as shite? People keep saying he's gonna run a 4.5. That might be true, but it LOOKS like he's running a damn 4.2 out there.
