 Position: C
 School: N.C. A&T

  Round 5, pick 7 (143 overall)

BIO: Four-year starter who.s been used at guard, center, and right tackle in college. All-Conference selection in the past.

POSITIVES: Big-bodied lineman who plays with solid fundamentals. Sets with a wide base, keeps his feet moving throughout the action and strong at the point of attack. Anchors in pass protection, controls opponents once engaged in a block and displays explosion at the initial point of contact. Moves well laterally, can adjust on the second level and stays with assignments. Displays a nasty streak, yet at the same time is intelligent and works well with teammates.

NEGATIVES: Must get his hands into opponents quicker and extend them to keep defenders away. Bends at the waist, which hurts his balance and blocking range. Not a knee-bender and has difficulty adjusting to pick up the blitz. Struggled most of the week at the Senior Bowl.

ANALYSIS: A solid prospect with a good degree of upside, Coston's versatility and natural skills give him good upside for the next level. Must improve his techniques and learn to play against better competition, yet a good developmental prospect.

PROJECTION: Early Fifth Round
