Round 6: Mississippi State DB Brian Cole II
Cole played the hybrid linebacker and safety position in the Mississippi State defense. As a senior in 2019, he amassed 67 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, two sacks, one interception, and two passes defended. He also served as a team captain during his senior season with the Bulldogs.
Cole only ran the 40-yard dash at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine, but he ran a 4.52 which was the eighth-fasted time in the draft class. He also played in the Senior Bowl, where he got a chance to showcase his skills, scooping up a fumble and returning it a good 20 yards. If Kansas City opts to move back into the sixth round, I could see Cole being a target.
