SNUBBED BY COMBINE, HERE'S A POTENTIAL PRO DAY GEM

Sometimes you just happen to check twitter at the right time.  Wednesday morning might have been one of those times.  Sitting around drinking my coffee and checking my online accounts, I saw that my alma mater, Missouri State University, was holding their pro day.  Based on the title of this post, you know that the player I'm going to inform you about didn't get a combine invite, yet had a monster day.

Here is a quick run-down on this pro day gem.

DYLAN COLE-
6'1"
240
Linebacker at Missouri State University
85 Solo tackles, 2 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles this season
39" vertical
32 reps on the bench press
4.48 40 time
10;5" broad jump
4.08 20 yard shuttle
6.82 3 cone drill

Dylan has a long list of athletic awards and accomplishments including being a finalist for this year's STATS FCS Buck Buchanan Award.

Link to college page, with statistics and long list of awards.

In high school at Logan-Rogersville in Rogersville, MO, Dylan was a stud two way player.  His senior year he was a state champion in football and made the all-state team as a running back.  If high school awards and accolades don't impress you much, consider that his competition in the state championship that season was Ezekiel Elliott.  Yes, both he and Elliott received top honors for running back that season. 

In addition to being a great athlete, it appears Dylan may also be a bit of a scholar as he has earned academic all-star awards and was a math-lete in high school. 

While I do not know if Cole has made it onto Belichick and the Patriots' radar yet, here's my push for the MSU Bear.
