He moved inside for a reason...he is not a T even at the college level.
Cole is an average/back-up C.
Really?
Wonder who stole his jersey and lined up at tackle at Michigan.
The reason was that they didn't have a centre, not his play at tackle.
And until further notice he's an average starting centre in the NFL.
On August 30, 2014, at age 18, Cole became the first Michigan offensive lineman to start in the season opener of his true freshman season,
[10] and the first to start at left tackle as a true freshman. Since true freshmen became eligible in 1972, only five have started any games on Michigan's offensive line:
Bubba Paris (one game in 1978),
Tom Dixon (one game in 1980),
Dean Dingman (three games in 1987),
Justin Boren (one game in 2006) and
Kyle Bosch(three games in 2013).
[8] In the 2014 season opener, Michigan backs set a Michigan single-game record with 9.7 yards per carry (350 yards on 36 carries), and the offensive line was credited with the outburst.

Following the 2016 season, Cole was named to the All-Big Ten offensive second-team, by both the coaches and media.
[12] Following the 2017 season, Cole was again named to the All-Big Ten offensive second-team, by both the coaches and media.
