Myles Cole

Jaguars selected Texas Tech EDGE Myles Cole with the No. 236 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

After four seasons at the University of Louisiana-Monroe, Cole (6’6/278) transferred to Texas Tech where he would start in all 12 games he played in. The Louisiana native had 3.5 sacks to pair with 6.5 TFL’s during his final season with the Red Raiders; rather unimpressive production for a sixth year player. He uses his massive wingspan to stack blockers and dispose of them with relative ease. Like others in the class, he sheds blocks well but does not necessarily have a solid anchor. As a pass rusher, he frequents a rip move and will use his long arms to disengage from tackles as the play develops. His pass rush moves are limited, as represented by his 63.1 PFF grade as a pass rusher, and he displayed little interest in a bull rush on tape. After a quiet career at edge, a switch to the interior with the addition of 25 or so pounds could suit him well. If he can add productive weight, play with good pad level and clean up his 23.3% missed tackle rate from 2023, he could become a successful 3 tech in the NFL.
