Hi Guys,

Here to answer any and all questions you have for me before I'm drafted into the DSFL, fire away and I'll answer as truthfully as possible. Let's make this fun.

I got you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quote:Which DSFL teams are you most interested in playing for? What about future NSFL teams?
Making it into the DSFL and the NSFL is obviously a dream for me, so any team would be an amazing experience, learning from these guys that've been playing for years and becoming a better player year-in-year-out. NSFL-wise, being an LSU kid myself I think Second Line would have a lot of love for me and I've got a lot of love for them but honestly any team is a dream come true and I'm looking forward to getting started with whoever wants me and showing them that they made the right choice.

Quote:What's for breakfast?
Always starting every day off right, 6 scrambled eggs, bagel and a black coffee. It's important to wake up every morning feeling ready and dangerous, kids.

Quote:Who do you look up to most?
Outside of myself, I look up to the great defensive players. Anyone that's ever made an interception inspires me every day. NSFL hall-of-famers like Antoine Delacour and, to a degree, Avon Blocksdale are incredible and I look forward to joining their ranks one day in the hall of fame.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quote:How flexible are you when compared to the others in your draft class?(i.e. position changes, build changes, etc)
I like to think I'm pretty flexible, my ability to cover zone means that I can transition well into the FS position if required, and my hands and speed mean I could probably even tag in as a WR if really required. I prefer swatting or intercepting the ball to just catching it though, better to ruin someones day than to just catch a ball.

Quote:What is the strongest part of your game?
I think my awareness and anticipation allows me to make plays that I otherwise wouldn't be able to make. Reading the play and anticipating the targeted reciever has made me get those picks I'm oh-so-famous for that I wouldn't have otherwise gotten. Having some of the best hands in the draft on top of that means that I'm a pretty good playmaker all-round. I like to think my trash talk on the field is pretty top notch too. Probably the best corner in the league for that.

Quote:If you had once sentence to describe yourself what would it be?
This is a toughy. It'd have to be: "Best corner in the draft, hands that receivers dream of, also a pretty nice guy."
As you can see, this was hard to think of, and is subsequently quite bad. Hope it suffices though.

Thanks for your questions.

Quote:What round are you hoping to get drafted in this stacked rookie class?
Getting drafted is a dream come true any round. Obviously, I think I'm good enough to go in the first round, we'll see what the GMs think of me. I know I can come in and immediately contribute to whichever team wants me, and I hoping they can see that too.

Quote:We've yet to face off in the prospect bowl (Flint Tropics). How do you expect to stop the GOAT Gimmy?
We actually had our first face off in the prospect bowl! I picked up 1 tackle, 1 tackle for loss and 1 pass defended against Gimmy, so I think I showed pretty easily that I can close out against the "GOAT" QB. Good game though, you guys have some strong prospects in your team that I'm excited to follow as we progress into the DSFL.

I uhhh....I haven't see either, I won't lie to you. They just don't seem appealing to me. Terribly sorry about that.

How do you feel about all your fellow prospects? Who would you most like to play with or against?

Which DSFL teams are you most interested in playing for? What about future NSFL teams?

What's for breakfast?

Who do you look up to most?

I'm excited about this draft of prospects, particularly defensively. I think we're coming in with a lot of potential to show what we can do. I think Pete Parker in safety would be great to play with, I think we've got similar ball-hawk attitudes to the game that could play well in the backfield. And, obviously I'm looking forward to showing prospects like Phillip Helmet and Tyrone Biggums that throwing the ball at me ANYTIME is a big mistake. We're going to tear up this year defensively and I think we're all excited to be a part of it.

Thank you for your questions man.

How flexible are you when compared to the others in your draft class?(i.e. position changes, build changes, etc)

What is the strongest part of your game?
