In Mocking The Draft's latest 2012 NFL Mock Draft, Brad Wells projects that the Philadelphia Eagles will use the 15th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft to select Fletcher Cox, a defensive tackle from Mississippi State.
Wells says that Cox, a 6-foot-4, 295-pounder, fits into Andy Reid's vision.
Fletcher Cox | Defensive tackle | Mississippi State: Eagles coach and personnel overlord Andy Reid loves to stock up on two things: Project quarterbacks (that he can later pawn off to dumb buyers) and defensive tackles. Cox is light-footed and quick, which is perfect for d-line coach Jim Washburn.
The National Football Post would consider Cox a bit of a stretch at the 15th selection, rating him the 27th-best prospect on their NFL Draft Big Board. The Post describes Cox as a player with a quick first step whose technique still needs more polish.
