aceinthehouse Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 In case you wondered if the Golden Cow of having TE's here was gonna run out? From Jordan Reed to Fred Davis to Chris Cooley to Vernon Davis to Logan Thomas, etc? It's not running out. Here's Cole Turner: ENJOY! Had 748 TD's last season...lol 😁. 😁. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripsean21 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 He was def the guy out of the big 3 at Nevada I hoped we got. I like Doubs but he needs to work on a few things but I think he can be a good player as well. But Turner is a dog!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e16bball Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Great catch radius, good strong hands, uses his body well to create space before the jump and gives himself a clean window to go up and get it. He’s a classic contested catch guy, former basketball PF and he plays like it. To me, he plays slow. I’m big on timed speed for TEs, at least in terms of setting their ceiling. Turner ran faster than a guy like Bates, for example — but watching him on the field, he seems to move slowly. Just a little sluggish, a lack of burst that seems like it showed up in that 27” vertical. He doesn’t block, really, and they actually lined him up wide a lot of the time at Nevada. Definitely not going to be your classic in-line TE, at least not out of the box. Also doesn’t seem to play much ST at this point, though he gonna have to learn. Personally, I kinda think he might be a practice squad guy early on, although he could take the TE3 spot from Sammis Reyes if that project isn’t making enough progress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think there's any chance he lands on Practice squad, bball. He's way too valuable as an endzone/redzone threat & Wentz blanket to land there. He'd get scooped up in a New York minute to someone's active roster. Specially, with Logan Thomas health status. I think he end ups as our #2 , before the year is out. Takes Bates Job & becomes a fan favorite. I would not be surprised if he gets 6+ TD's this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick burst speed but not top end speed: but the way he finds space as he saves up energy for that burst looks to me like it could work if that continues Good vision+ Good Burst+ Body Separation + Human Vacuum on other side of body == OhhhnYeahhhh. Once defenders have to roll to it WR's will FEAST. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Honestly I don’t see it with Turner. I thought he was one of our worst picks. I’ll be surprised if he ever contributes anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and Bates are going to be a good 1-2 combo at TE for us. Edited May 13, 2022 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt Turner gets 6 TDs, Logan will eventually return and start even if he isn’t out there week 1. Turner and Bates are different types of TEs and will be deployed differently. If Logan isn’t ready to go week 1, Bates will be the starter as he’s our best blocking TE for run downs. Turner would maybe see time when we go to a 4-wide/spread type offense with the TE playing as a big slot WR as that’s not really Bates’s forte right now unless he takes a big jump in his development as a receiver this off-season for next season.

As you know a classic in line TE has to be a good blocker hint maybe Turner lacks the lower body strength which he will need to work on. Right now if anything he reminds me of a Clint Didier type, you know the TE that will be good in the seams, flats and definitely a threat in the end zone. This is what he seems to bring to the table and this COULD limit his potential as being one dimensional player. He looks like a decent athletic pass catcher but as always (with any player) we have to see. Sometimes I am a little cautious. A classic don't count your chickens before they hatch type of guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
