North Carolina's Jonathan Cooper has great pro day

Posted Mar 26, 2013
NFL.com's Bucky Brooks (also a UNC football alum) noted on Tuesday's "Path to the Draft" that Jonathan Cooper exceeded all expectations at the Tar Heels Pro Day while turning in the best workout he has seen from a guard in a long time. Brooks' evaluation meshes with that of NFL Films analyst Greg Cosell, who called Cooper the most athletic guard he's seen since he began studying college tape. (NFL.com)
