Why is it a stretch?

Read this, he sounds like he is a FOOTBALL PLAYA.

One of the knocks on Cooper is that he doesn't play through pain well. And before you start on one of your rants, no, I don't "know" this, just going off stuff I read.

I want my guards to be total ass kickers. Not a guy who has a pain tolerance problem.

Would I take Cooper at 18? Love it. Trade up? No. If given the choice between him and Warmack? I take Warmack. Simple as that.

Randall McDaniel was somewhat overrated compared with the hype over his career, but even so he was a stud. He always made pro bowls, but I didn't see him as a difference-maker.

Warmack is less powerful than Larry Allen, but he moves like Will Shields. I take that guy even if I have to trade up to do it. Cooper I draft if he falls to me, but I don't expect an extra special player.

The Shields comparison is a good one.

No rant here, that's the 1st I heard of this and it would give me pause.

I have gotten wary of guys with weight and movement issues I don't think they age well and lose there value.
