DEMARCO COBBS

Cobbs is essentially a wide receiver playing quarterback in the spread offense and he is extremely dangerous with his legs. He is thickly built and physically imposing. Cobbs can scoot and he is explosive and sudden in his movements, given his size. He shows tremendous feet and the ability to jump cut, plant, stab laterally and create big plays with his legs. He throws the ball just well enough for him to be dangerous as a dual threat, but it's his open-field run skills that jump out on tape. He shows good speed, quickness, change-of-direction and especially vision when on the run and he is capable of making multiple defenders miss in space. He runs well enough to threaten you deep and when he gets into the open field he is capable of winning footraces against top-end defenders. However, he also shows some power and is difficult to bring down as a runner. With limited time out wide, he shows very good ball skills and is a natural athlete. If he were to be moved to safety or wide receiver, the learning curve would not be very steep. The little nuances of the wide receiver position would have to be developed, but his talent and instincts would do the rest. Cobbs has the ability level to be a potential difference maker at more than one position and he is extremely dangerous with the ball in his hands. Will be one of the most coveted skill prospects in this class.
