STEVE SMITH BREAKS DOWN PANTHERS' UDFA WR JALEN COKER

Smitty says "he is the best route runner in his class".   Steve seems pretty high on this guy, and I only found it after reading an ARTICAL HERE where Coker was voted the most likely to make the 53 man roster this season.

Keep in mind this was recorded BEFORE the 2024 NFL Draft.

Oh, and this really opened MY eyes.  I had never... not once... considered what it was like (other than disappointment) not to be drafted.  But this video shows this kid was just as happy and emotional as if the Commissioner himself had called his name.

Definitely a ‘feel good story’… Still, like Smitty said, he’s NOT fast. He’s going to have to prove himself on the field with ‘technique’. Definitely a slot receiver.

Loved that twitter video!!  Sounds like a good young man and would love to see him make the 53. 4 years at the same school...a rare thing these days.  Here is his profile page at Holy Cross:

Yes, definitely enjoyed the videos myself and it definitely is a feel good story! I watched some of his highlight videos on YouTube and the thing that most stood out to me were the contested catches. He's pretty darned good at coming up with the ball, he fights for them every single time. Smitty stated that he only had two dropped passes last season.

Thanks for posting his profile page from Holy Cross.  I'm a sucker for the underdog.  Always have been.
