Reading up on this guy, he might be another Clinton McDonald. Great athleticism, problem with work ethic.
Cowboys and Patriots pursued him as an UDFA, he signed with Dallas.
Undrafted DT Rodney Coe Eager To Prove Cowboys' Interest Well-Founded
He tried his best not to single anyone out, but when Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones was pressed for details about his undrafted free agents, he came up with one name.
“Coe,” Jones said. “There are reasons he didn’t get drafted. But he certainly has a lot of ability, and I think a coach like Rod Marinelli will do wonders for him in terms of his up and down career.”
Jones was referring to Rodney Coe, who signed undrafted out of Akron in the hours following the NFL draft. The 6-3, 305-pound defensive tackle was a pre-draft visitor at Valley Ranch in the weeks leading up to the draft, and the Cowboys’ supportive words didn’t go unnoticed.

Draft Analysis
Strengths: Former running back now living in the body of a defensive tackle. Thick bubble with good, natural strength in lower half. Loose hips allow him to turn and flip over the edge of blockers.
Has traits to become a significantly better pass rusher with more work. Flashes above average quickness of snap with shots in the gaps.
Excellent change of direction talent with scary pursuit speed for a big guy. Fluid athlete with good lateral movement skills down the line. Plays nose and three-technique.

Played two seasons for Iowa Western, helping his team win the 2012 JUCO National Championship (12-0) with 42 tackles and 1.5 sacks that season.
Played running back as a freshman and gained 468 yards on 80 carries with nine touchdowns. Rushed for more than 2,000 yards Edwardsville High. Also played linebacker. Ranked No. 2 by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in its Super 30 in 2010.
Grandfather, Charles Coe, is the offensive coordinator at Missouri Baptist and former first-round draft choice of the Detroit Tigers in 1971.
