Same size, similar combine numbers, both body catchers with below average acceleration from what I've read. The difference I saw in scouting reports was that Malone has plus hands, while Core's hands were deemed average. Also, Malone is sharp out of his breaks, while it was said Core runs rounded, sloppy routes.
Also I have to wonder why the coaches would spend a quality pick on Malone if they were sold on Core.
Core is a much more physical blocker than Malone and is just more physical in general.
Also, Core ran rounded, sloppy routes in college. It appears he has cleaned this up big time. Urban is a good coach, i believe
he could coach both these guys into something special. Core right now is ahead of Malone and i don't know how anyone could
argue otherwise. Core is going nowhere, we will most likely carry 7 receivers and Malone might not dress at times during the
season. Lafell or Erickson are the most likely to go if we keep 6 IMHO.
