Cowboys | Cole Beasley says he is not similar to Wes Welker

Dallas Cowboys rookie WR Cole Beasley has been compared to New England Patriots WR Wes Welker throughout offseason workouts – a comparison that frustrates Beasley. He considers himself to be a bit more versatile than Welker. ‘I get tired of it a little bit because I feel like I have a little bit more speed than Wes Welker does,’ Beasley said. ‘He’s got a little bigger frame than me but I feel like I’ve got a little more versatility to my game than he does. I do have similarities with him but I feel like I can play a little bit more outside (than Welker does), as well as inside.’
