Renell Wren vs Fletcher Cox
#1
I will get killed for making this comparison, but I have been reading about how Wren gets washed out on certain plays and isn't able to fight off double teams. Well, I looked back at a review of one of the best DTs in the game, Fletcher Cox, and much of the same was said about him coming out of college.

Now, I understand that Cox is significantly faster. He ran a 4.79 in the forty (Wren, 20 lbs heavier ran a 5.01) at the combine and does not exclusively line up at NT. He plays in a 4 man front at Philly, but will go back and forth from NT to DT. He clearly offers a very solid pass rush, and (as previously mentioned) is one of the best in the game.

I did find it interesting, though, that at the current size of Wren (6'5", 318lbs) that he was able to have a greater vertical (32" vs 26") and a better long jump (118" vs 103"). They did the same number of bench press of 225 (30 times). That is some serious explosiveness there. Cox comes in at 6'4", 310lbs today, but was just under 300 lbs coming out of college when he did the combine.

I am not suggesting that Wren will be the next Fletcher Cox, but there are some intriguing numbers with regard to the strength and athleticism of Wren. Below are the links to their combine evaluations.
