Quinton Coples awaits his NFL destination
Posted Apr 26, 2012
Quinton Coples should hear his name called tonight in the first round of the NFL draft. He just doesn’t know whether he will hear it early or late. CBSSports.com draft analyst Rob Rang ranked Coples as the 12th best prospect overall, calling him the most physically gifted defensive lineman on the board and the most talented senior regardless of position.
