*Bjørn Taking a Dive into Fellow Prospects - IsaStarcrossed - 08-11-2019
Ironside Streaming has now gone live! Titled "Taking a Look at the Competition".
The stream kicks in and as the view loads, Bjørn is seen standing in front of a huge projection board. "Greetings guys and gals, Bjørn Ironside coming at you with a look at the competition! With me entering the DSFL draft, I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at my fellow prospects. These guys will be my teammates, my rivals, and my friends in the coming season. I wanted to take a look at these guys and give a run down of what I think of them. After that, I might even set up a mock draft for you guys depending on how the stream goes. The tone of this article is meant to in no way be influenced by my bias or my opinions. That's right, completely opinion free analysis."
Quarterback
Bjørn takes a laser pointer and points it at the board. "Lets start with the quarterbacks. These self righteous assholes who get everything handed to them on a silver platter while the rest of us scrounge for the scraps. The assholes we obsess about hitting. Those guys. We don't have a lot of choices here, but it may be for the best. There aren't a ton of starting spots open in the NSFL and these guys might really have to compete to even be considered for a spot."
"Lets start with Phillip Helmet. He came from one of those artsy colleges. Julliard. I'm sure they teach a lot of things there, but is football really one of those things? He has all the right measurable. 6'4, 220 lbs, and intelligence to spare. He looks good on paper, but that's about the only place he looks good. When was the last time he actually played against real competition? Julliard doesn't exactly have a team that matches up against big names. Still, the kid has an accurate arm even if he does struggle getting it down field from time to time. His game tape puts me in mind of an Alex Smith style player. If you need someone to run your game plan without question, this is probably your guy. Just don't expect him to go off the script and make the big play in the fourth quarter. Still, he seems to be doing what he can to get his name out there and increase his draft stock and you might want to keep your eye on him."
Bjørn moves the pointer down to the next name on the list. "Here we have Jay Cue. I like this guy. Being from Portugal, he didn't exactly come up surrounded by football. In fact I'm not even sure he's ever passed a football in his life. He's a natural athlete though and played a ton of European based sports before having an interest in the one true sport. There is one thing he's good at. Running. He's fast, the fastest quarterback in this draft. I don't know that anyone has ever seen him throw the ball, but this man does things with his feet that I've never seen before. Its almost freakish. The good thing is he may not ever need to actually throw the ball and that can't possibly be a negative. Am I right? He did an interview the other day that you might want to check out, but the guy has a thing for feet. So if you like feet, this guy might be your guy."
The pointer slips down to the final selection on the list. "Finally, we have Victor Bravo. This guy is the most tradition passer prospect we have. His measurables are perfect and he has a great arm. Even the name inspires confidence. Victor Bravo. It really rolls off the tongue. He has accuracy and arm strength to spare and puts me in the mind of a young Matt Leinart. Actually, Matt Leinart is probably his ceiling. Still, of all the quarterbacks, this is the one I want to hit the most. I can't stand these styles of players, standing around statues and letting everyone else do the work for them. We'll see if measurables convert over to game ability soon enough."
Halfback
"Alright. Now that we've finished with the trash, we can move on to the halfbacks. I don't even know why we're talking about these guys. Let's be real, they're entering the league at a bad time. For any of these guys to have success, first they have to get through me. That's really just not going to happen. Still, they're prospects. I'm sure someone will pick them up along the way, so let's get started!" Bjørn clicks a button on his projection screen and and the list of halfback prospects appears.
"We have to start this list by talking about Jay Utler. You can't even talk about halfback prospects without bring this guys up. My first thought? Overrated. How much athletic ability does this guy even have? Has anyone even checked the guy for PEDs? We all know he's an alcoholic, so what other vices does he have?" Someone is heard yelling in the background. Bjørn steps out of camera view. "What was that, Mike? He went where? Oh! Really? Thanks for the heads up!" Bjørn steps back into the camera and clears his throat. "Ahem. As I was saying, this guy is an absolute beast. A Michigan alum with a chip on his shoulder. You know about those Michigan guys, absolute athletes with unlimited potential. He's the quickest guy in the draft and will easily be the next Shady McCoy. He smells a lot like a bottle of Jack Daniels and has the personality of one too. Feisty, tough, and hard to get down. But then again, that may be the alcohol immunity. Regardless, this guy is a monster and he should be high on every board!"
"Moving on, we're taking a look at Sean Frost. With a name like Frost, you know he's designed to do big things. He's six foot even, 218 pounds, has a solid build. He's plenty fast and has some strength to push between the tackles as well. He's really built to do it all, but his history brings a lot of question marks. He hails out of Boston college and we all know about those east coast guys. I mean they do a lot of things right over there, but football? This guy looks like he has some upside if he can stay frosty, but without the right coach to develop him he may just end up a melted mess."
"So let's quickly progress. Clove Rhook is the next guy on my list. I'm going to be real, who is this guy? Comes out of Nevada? Idaho alum? There isn't a lot of tape on him, but from what I've seen he's a little different. He's not the strongest or the fastest back on the list, but his conditioning is insane. Whatever he does with his cardio is really working for him. He may be the one guy on this list that is really capable of carrying the ball every down. I don't know that he'll go anywhere with it, but he'll definitely carry it."
"Mathias Hanyadi. Another east coast guy from a backwards college that never does anything. Let me tell you though, I have to give this guy points though. He's one of our faster prospects and he really hits the training room. He seems to be constantly doing what he can to stay updated and keep in shape. A real gym rat if you will. He's keeping his name out there and promoting himself. He seems to be the real deal, determined to get into the league. I think that alone might push him over some of these other prospects. His biggest down side is his side. The dude weight what? 200 pounds. Its like the dude wants to be crushed out there. Mathias, bro, if you're listening to this eat a sandwich. I don't want to be on trial for murder by the end of the prospect bowl."
"Next up is..What?" Bjørn looks to the camera. Then back to the board. Then back to the camera. Then back to the board. "Yo, Mike?" There's a pause and then yelling in the background. "Oh, so you're sure?" More yelling. "Alright. Next on our list is Fuzzy Dotson." Bjørn is unable to contain a bit of a snicker. "All I can think of is a wiener dog, I'm sorry. Back on task, back on task! I like this guy. The first words that come to mind when I see him on tape is thicc. This dude is massive! Weighing in at 245 pounds, this is a boy with some meat on his bones. Heralding from Texas and graduating from Arizona, this dude is a Mack truck dressed up like a Prius. He's likely the premier blocking back on this prospect list and I'm a pretty big fan. He's a self promoter and a determined mind and I can see some eyes on him. Oh boy I can't wait to hit this guy, what a collision that will be. Do me a favor and try not to murder any defensive backs out there."
Bjørn comes to a complete stop at the next name and begins to drool a bit. He stares at the screen and his eyes begin to shimmer a bit. Mike is heard yelling in the background. Bjørn finally breaks, his entire face lifting into the dumbest grin imaginable. "Miiiiiiike! Its TAAAAAAAAACOS!" Bjørn throws his hands up in victory. "Its fucking tacos, Mike! I'm so damn hungry now. How much longer on the stream?" Yelling in the background. "I'm not even half way through the list? But tacos, Mike!" More yelling. "You know what, fuck you too buddy. Anyways ladies and gents, we're on to Paco McTaco. Great things can come in small packages. Come on GMs out there, look at this guy. Tacos are in his name. Draft him. Now. What else do you need to know? If you need more, he's a tiny quick guy out of Arizona State. He's got speed and stamina to spare and I see him bouncing around the edges a lot. You defensive tackles out there, watch out for my boy McTaco. Don't step on him. Seriously. Tacos are food, not toys."
"Now we have Orion Drake. I keep seeing this guy's name pop up here and there, which is good for him. That means he's getting his name out and you don't have to go digging for film to know what he's about. He's a decent sized guy, 6'0, 225 pounds. Deceptively fast, but not afraid to put down his shoulder. I have respect for a guy who's willing to risk his soul trying to go between the tackles. He was originally from Calgary, so he was used to fake football from the land of the snow people. Then he went to Oregon and they don't really do this football thing there either. Still, if he stays in the gym and keeps his name on the media's lips, I can see him rising in the next week."
"This all brings us to Charles Allan. I have a hard time trusting anyone coming out of Mississippi State. If we're all being honest, you only go to Mississippi State because you knew you couldn't cut it at Alabama. Still, he's a big guy with a lot of speed. As far as pure on paper numbers, this guy has it all. I think he has some of the highest upside on this list. He's young, he's active, and he doesn't have a completely bizarre name. Actually I don't know if that last one is positive or negative. I certainly think he's in the top half of this halfback group."
"Finally we have Marcella T?riki. This is one of my favorite prospects, She grew up out of country and didn't have a lot of football in her life, but she was a pretty stout rugby player during her time in the sport. If we're all being fair, rugby is the only other sport that competes with the one true sport, so I have to say she has talent. She's small, but she's at least smart enough to not get crushed moving through the middle. She has absolutely fantastic hands and decent speed out of the back field. She's crafty and has quick feet and is difficult to get down in the open field.She's another Oregon grad, which really doesn't speak to her football pedigree. I also question her ability to be an every down back. I think she'd be a good asset to any team who already a feature back for me to hurt."
Wide Receiver
Bjørn takes in a deep breath. "Oh boy that took a lot of wind out of me. That's not even our biggest group of prospects.We'll be getting to them soon. First we need to get to the talk, lanky, funny looking guys that line up outside the numbers. These guys are long freaks with massive hands. I'd have more respect if these guys would come at me, but they're always going around behind my back. Still, they're gifted athletes and GMs tend to like them, so we have to talk about them."
"Dorian Cope is the first guy on our list. I have a hard time reading this guy. He was a solid red zone threat out of Texas, but his athletic ability has always baffled me. He's heavier than most guys with his abilities while also being shorter. Usually you have to have a certain build to do the things he does. you have to be able to jump, go up and get the ball. Short and heavy isn't a great mixture for that. Still, beyond all laws of physics, he makes it work for him. I can't make heads or tails of it, but maybe a GM out there can."
"Bug Daldwin is another one who's build doesn't quite match up with his role. He is tall possession receiver with a bigger build for others of that role. We have to question his sanity though. This is our first prospect who truly heralds from the depths of Florida. Florida does things to the minds of those who reside there and I don't know that his time at Stanford was long enough to lift the fog. Wait? Did I just read that right? How did this kid get into Stanford in the first place? Anyways, if you're looking for a big body over the middle who can be a safety net for a young guy behind center, this may be your target."
"What to say about Jake Watson? I like his build. He's a shifty route runner with some intelligence. He's quick to pick up on the play book and has the quick feet to make his opposition jump fake routes. He could have went to a real college instead of Toledo or whatever hole it was he crawled out of, but everything else measures out. He's actually one of the faster guys in this prospect class, but it comes at a sacrifice. His hands are made of bricks. Seriously, he claps them together like he's trying to start a fire. His hands are a little less reliable than some of the others, but he can make corners look silly so its a fair trade most days. He actively works to improve, so he has a high upside and might can soften those hands up in no time."
"Ric..Dan..Why? Hey Mike, did you see this one?" Yelling in the back ground. "So you're serious? Richard Dangle? Like Dick Dangle? Damn his mom was thirsty. 6'2, 180 pound possession receiver. He's kind of a small guy, so maybe Mr Dangle in compensating for a little something" Bjørn cracks up a little. "What he's not compensating for is his play and his willingness to improve himself. He went from California directly into Florida, so there are concerns about his psyche, but he made some plays at Miami. He's a grower, not a shower but I think he has a future in the league."
"When you have a name like Alexander, you have to be held to the esteem of the name. Alexander the Great was the greatest conquer man has ever known. This kid has a lot of work to do if he ever wants to live up to that and conquer the league. He's a smart pass catcher but has below average hands for this prospect group. There's not much on this guy, but he's from Iowa. At least he comes from Iowa, right? At least he comes from a school that people have heard of in the last decade." That ever familiar voice is heard in the background. "What was that Mike? The last time they played in a bowl game was 2010? Oh. Well close to the last decade anyways."
"Finally we have a big boy prospect. Jim Bob Cooter is a massive 6'5 and 235 pounds. I love the big boys. He comes straight out of Green Bay and we all know the teams in that part of the country tend to operate off their own home grown talent. You know a guy named Jim Bob was home grown and came up on corn bread, potatoes, and meat. No vegan or vegetarian diets here. He's big, he's mean, and he can go up for the ball. He reminds me of Kelvin Benjamin before he became a tight end. I'm big on this guy, I love me some Cooter." Frantic screaming in the back ground. "What do you mean I can't say that, Mike?"
"Jesse Jackson is one of the few guys on our list that has been an athlete his entire life. He was a heralded track star who slowly converted into football. He's likely the fasted pass catcher in this prospect class and has good size too. He's been a burner his whole life. This is a guy who is used to setting records and even had the opportunity to compete at the Olympics. He expects greatness. Now he needs to chill and come down to earth. This is football. Where you get hit and get hit hard. He hasn't ever had a 320 pound man on top of him before. He's quick, but I don't know that he can roll with the punches. I doubt a prestigious and heralded establishment like Illinois State taught him much about football, but we'll see."
"We've finally reached the bottom embers of this absolute dumpster fire. Tyrone Biggums. I honestly don't know what to say about this guy. He comes out of the celebrated land of fake football and the frozen lands. But his home town is Moose Jaw, so that has to count for something. I hear moose are almost as big as I am, so those have to be some intimidating fuckers. If he can handle those things, he can handle the NSFL. He's another short possession receiver who likes to sneak in under coverage, but clearly he must be tougher than I estimate. Not too much more to go with here."
Tight End
"Now that we're moving away from them boys that are afraid to get hit, let's move into some guys I can respect. These guys are some bigger boys who like contact. I'm talking about our tight ends. Your tight end, my tight end." Bjørn hit a button on the projector and Black Widow pops up on screen. "Scarlett Johansson has a hell of a tight end. I digress, getting off topic. Lets get into them"
"Scott Brewer is one of those Florida guys. He was born in Florida, he was raised in Florida, he went to college in Florida. The scouting reports on his overall ability to make logical decisions are questionable at best. That said, he's tall, he's big, and he's willing to do just about anything. Seriously, I'm pretty sure there's video footage of him chasing chickens naked because someone told him feathers would help him fly. Florida. Don't question it. He's been working on improving since leaving college, so at least that's a plus"
"Now we have Harrison Sherman. A raw prospect who graduated from some place called the University of Minnesota. Mark that one on your map. He has a lot of upside and seems to be working on his game. He's a pretty decent blocker but can catch the ball pretty well too. He's not the fastest guy on the field, but he's versatile and that's something teams can use."
"Next on the list is..Mike! Mike, the fuck is this?" Enthusiastic yelling from the dark lands. "That is not even a word, much less a name." More yelling. "Bullshit it is. if that's a word, why don't you come fucking say it. I'm not going to say it. You made this up." Howling laughter mixed with yelling. "You know what, fuck it. " Bjørn uses the pointer to point at a name, Kreboktaflons Kwemen. "We're going to call him K. Don't give me that damn look, K will be fine. K? This guy is a little bit smarter than your average tight end. Instead of a box of rocks, you have some shiny pebbles clattering around in there. He's a well balanced player coming out of some hole in the wall called James Madison University. Seriously, I don't know where that is but I'm pretty sure I've been in larger 7-11s. This guy never stops working on his game, which I can respect. But damn does he need to work on that name."
"Ivan Abra-Abrakadabra? Abramovich. Jesus the names on these guys. I'm about to have to take back every good thing I said about these guys. Maybe they spent so much time learning their own names that they lost their way on a few things. What do you need to know about Ivan? Tall guy at 6'6, great vertical. He can get down the field if he remembers which direction he's supposed to go."
"Oh thank god. Ricky Boomer. A name I can say. You know what? This guy. Pick this guy up. His momma was smart enough o give him a name pronounceable enough that people don't just refer to him as "hey you". He's another guy who's really worked on making himself versatile and fleshing out all parts of his game. He's a little faster than some of the other versatile guys and seems to be working hard on improving his game. Still, the name man. Solid points."
"Earl Sauce. I mean I can at least say it, but I suppose I can find solace in the fact that Mr. Sauce does not work in food service. Big, balanced, bright as a box of variety gray crayons. He comes out of Boise State which probably explains his testing scores. With some development, he'd be a solid piece to use as a human shield."
"These fucking tight ends and these names. Steco Ocewilder. I suppose if this guy can stand in the middle of the field and do the funky chicken, he'd still be better than the better known Osweiler. Hopefully he doesn't have the same gift for fleecing franchises out of money. This guy has solid speed and solid hands and can be a mismatch nightmare. He went to Auburn, so you know he's good for at least once decent game a year against your most bitter rival. Don't expect too much more though."
"We're at least more than half way through this list. We're going to move on to-" Bjørn cuts off abruptly and just stares at the screen. "You know what? We're not even going to make a deal out of this. He hasn't earned it. Chigg Bungus is one of those guys who tried to mix his game up, but he can't. You know why? Because he's a mere 245 pounds. I've seen Kelvin Benjamins bigger than this guy. Not to mention he's from Alaska. Do Eskimos even know what a football looks like? You know what, give this guy some meatloaf and point him at the end zone. I'm sure it'll be okay."
"Robert Dade. You can teach talent, you can't teach size. 245 pounds.Where is this guy from? North Carolina? Now come on, North Carolina is in the south. You know this boy ate. So where'd it all go? Oh. Florida. He went to Florida. He is at least one of the better run blockers in this class despite being undersized, so perhaps he's a little deceptive. Still, you can't trust a man who can't put down his tacos."
"Zach Hall is another undersized guy. He went to North Carolina A&T which is where players you've never heard of go to disappear further into obscurity. His blocking ability is a huge question mark, but he does have decent hands. That said, his whole claim to fame is a viral youtube video of him doing trick catches. Hopefully for his sake, his ability to juggle balls and pull off circus like catches will find him a home on a team here in the DSFL."
"Our final tight end prospect is Bill Bono. This guy has come completely out of left field and there isn't much information on him. He's got soft hands and he's bigger than some of the other guy that fill the same role. This could easily make him a match-up nightmare in the hands of the right team. But seriously, someone ask this guy some questions. It's like he spontaneously spawned and decided to play football."
Offensive Line
"With that train wreck moving on out, we're finally to some of my favorite guys. These boys are the ones who I get to see every time I take the field. Their big, goofy smiles, their missing teeth, the blank but joyful look in their eyes. These are the biggest boys in the yard. They ain't afraid to get a little rough and tumble and are juicy giant teddy bears. These guys are the only thing between me and some sweet, sweet quarterback booty and they never look better than when they're on their ass in the dirt. These guys usually fit the same profiles, big and dumb. Apparently I have to give them a fair rub though, so here we go."
"Samuel Bakhtiari is the first guy on our list. He's a little bit smaller than I'd like. He's short and a little lean, but its deceptive. He's strong as an ox and is a fairly balanced blocker for run and pass. That said he's from California. I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to hit in California. They're a little light on the touching on that side of the continent. Still, a few fair rubs and I think he'll settle in nicely."
"Joseph Tom, the guy with two first names. This guy is a much better pass protector than a run blocker. That tells me he likes to run and give up ground. I don't like to chase my hits, Tom. You're a big guy, take me like a man. His size is a major plus and he comes from Wisconsin. We've already discussed the guys from Wisconsin, so lets give him a fair rub."
"Our next offensive lineman is a little light on the beef. Garfield Despacito comes in at 320 pounds, which I'm pretty sure makes you ineligible to be up front with the big boys. Nug University. I'm pretty positive that isn't a real place. But it has to be, right? Garfield is the smartest offensive lineman in this group despite questionable educational origins. His athletic ability is in question, but if you want someone who can learn the plays and be a leader of your line, this might be your guy. You might need to introduce him to your nearest taco provider. Maybe that'll get him a fair rub."
"Maximus Chungus is a name I'm pretty familiar with. Big Chungus has done an excellent job at promoting himself. You see him on TV, you see him doing interviews. He's a guy who knows how to get his draft stock up. This dude went to a college without a football team and used his daddy's money to buy his own football team. I'm not sure if that was the only way he could get on a roster or not, but it certainly says something about his devotion to the sport. He comes in light on the mass but he can put on pounds. You can't grow and that is something he has going for him. This dude is one of the tallest guys in the sport. Yo, Chungus, I know you're reading this. Me, you, tacos. The rest of the off season. We're going to make you a monster and get you a fair rub."
"We're going to take a quick look at Caden Bright. This is my kind of man. He's a massive 6'7, 340 pounds. Being raised outside of the country, he didn't grow up around football. He also played at UCLA, which is questionable at best. Still, I know a gifted athlete when I see one. He's a run blocker who really fights in the trenches and what he lacks in skill he makes up in pure size. This guy is going to get a fair rub."
Something similar to a guttural growl emits from the depths of Bjørn's chest as he directs his pointer towards a name. His face twists a bit and finally he releases the pressure out with a long sigh. Eeeee Silvveremm. "The literal fuck. I thought this was the tight end thing. He's from Florida, which very well explains everything. Not much to say here. This guy has some raw strength, has pretty incredible size, and can develop into a well rounded talent. I think Florida got to his brain before your playbook, but GM's should give him a fair rub."
"Jared Smithson, graduate from the University of Maine. University of Maine? The fact that I had to search and see if that was even a real school isn't even this guy's worst transgression. He's tiny for a big man. Short, light, and not the strongest prospect. He's going to get tossed around like a bag of potatoes. Speaking of potatoes, get some. Fry them. Get them in this guy's system. His technique is fine, he just needs a weight room. And get this man a fair rub."
"Now we're looking at Benjamin Gordon. There is only one thing to point out about this guy. I don't care that the likelihood of Western Nebraska Community College actually playing football is nonexistent. i don't care that he's as strong as a run away bus. The only thing that matters here is a number. 358 pounds. This is a man that knows his way around some tacos. If a GM doesn't give this man a fair rub, I will."
"Dudley Moore is a pretty solid all around prospect. He's managed to keep himself pretty well rounded in his training and a good GM can help mold him into the player they want. He's a little light and I'm not entirely sure he has a football history coming from Ball State. That said, this dude grew up in Chicago, IL. I don't know if you guys have ever been to Chicago, but I have. Let me tell you now, you need to be a special kind of person to survive out there. Either insane or driven. No matter which one, I'm sure he'll fit right into the league. A survivor needs a fair rub."
Bjørn lets out a happy little groan. "This is the type of guy I like to see. This is my kind of man. He's such a man that I even took the time to learn his ridiculous name. Givussafare Rubbe is a massive 6'7, 340 pounds. So much beef, so much majesty. He's even refined his game around being as athletic as possible so you know he likes to buckle down in the trenches and fight you for every inch. He's a dirty, dirty boy and I'm down with that. This dude is huge. He really knows how to promote and it's hard not to see his name anytime this class is brought up. He went to Grand Valley State, but I can't hold history against such a beautiful man. This is prime rib, so now you know it when you see it. This man right here should see more than his share of fair rubs."
"Oh, now you're fucking with me. MIKE! Mike! Did you see this shit?" Incoherent gibberish. "That is not an offensive lineman, Mike, and you know it! You put this shit together, get me the right number." Loud, sassy response. "This is absolutely absurd. Tony Tonogai. Did you know this man is 319 pounds? He's a skipped breakfast away from being a tight end. I'm not even sure how he ended up here. No one knows where he came from, he didn't go to college, and I'm pretty sure he has brain damage. Still, he's modeled his game around run blocking so that gives him points I guess. I admire any man who weighs that little and has the heart to try and push in the trenches instead of fleeing like a dainty little pass protector. Fair rubs don't add weight, do they?"
"Yummy, yummy, yummy. This is another one of our big boys. Footballer Blockerman matches Rubbe's size, but he has that name to boot. Any man named Football Blockerman knows what his destiny is. He burst from the womb with a helmet and some pads and declared to all, "Momma, this boy's gonna buy you a house when he makes it.". He's got big dick strength. He's likely the single strongest offensive lineman in this class. His technique could use some work, but that can be refined with a patient GM and some training. I guarantee on draft day this man will get his fair rub."
"Our last big boy prospect is Tore Andre Flø. I both love and hate this man. He frustrates me to no end because he could be the perfect prospect. He's got size, he's got strength, he's even got the god damned heritage. Norway. Scandinavia. Home of my proud ancestors. Vikings, warriors, fighters. Yet this man has decided to model his play around pass defense. Vikings don't give up ground, Tore. That is not okay. We do not back away or flee. What happened to your ball, Tore? Get them back brother. I will go help you find them. Then we can see about getting you that fair rub."
Defensive End
Bjørn lets out a big stretch and glances to the camera. "Just like that, we're done with the offensive side of the ball. I'm sorry you guys had to sit through that and sludge through it with me. Everyone knows that the defense is where things really get interesting. That's where the men play, that's where the magic happens.To open this up, we're going to start with my brothers down in the trenches. Those boys that share my blood and my eagerness to remove skinny, cocky little assholes from play. Let us introduce our defensive ends. They're a little light on the beef, but we've not yet managed to convert our brethren of the edge lands to the ways of the taco yet. They'll come around."
"Our first man up to bat is Clelin Ferrell. He's 6'6 and 275 pounds. He's one of our first prospects that comes out of a big boy school. Clemson knows how to play ball and I'm sure he learned every move he could from the greats. Overall, he's a mixed bag who can come with a surprising burst of speed off the edge while also having the strength to throw off an unsuspecting lineman. He has been hitting the gym trying to improve on his talents. He's the kind of edge guy I like. He stops runners at the line and leaves the tiny men to me." (3)
"James Lux is next up. The good news is this man's size. As a defensive end weight 292 pounds, he is quite the unit. The unfortunate part is that he's yet another prospect from Florida. The fortunate part is that his brain is already jumbled enough that all the hits he'll be taking from guys trying to get out of my way shouldn't impact his psyche to much. This man is a certified run stuffing talent and I love him for it. As long as he stays down this path, I'll continue calling him a brother."
"Now we get to the kind of guy that gives these edge guys a bad name. He calls himself a rusher, but he's really just in the way. Trash, road blocker, glory hog. Call him what you want, but Baxter Chance isn't the greatest of players. Sure, he's got amazing size for an edge guy. 6'6, 297 pounds is pretty intimidating out there. He's strong and quick and has some athleticism. But do we really know he even knows how to play football? Guy out of Jersey who went to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute? What even is that place? I'm just not sure a guy like this has a spot in our league." Mike can be heard yelling a bit angrily in the back ground. "It is fair, Mike! And no, I'm not jealous that he might get to the quarterback first. I just don't think he's a great fit!"
"Anyways, lets get back to some real talent. Heinrich Meyer is a well rounded guy who seems suiting for sealing off the edge and containing those guys trying to get outside. He's a little lighter than I'd like, but a few tacos will get him there. He's not originally from the land of the one true sport, but he went to a Michigan school. Its a lesser Michigan school being Western Michigan University, but still a Michigan school and I'm sure they got him up to speed."
"Mike Franchet is a guy that we really don't know too much about. Born in Indianapolis, spent his life there, graduated at Indiana. No one really talks about Indiana which is probably why he's so unfamiliar. Still, since announcing his draft eligibility, he's really shown off his work ethic. He seems to have balanced skill set that is better for keeping my prey from escaping. I more than welcome him to the brotherhood."
"I'm not going to lie, I've not spent much time in my life paying much attention to New Hampshire. In fact if there were ever a state that I were to forget, it might would be this one. That said, Ram Bunchess looks to be a fairly solid talent from this state and whatever competitive system it might offer. He's one of the stronger prospects here and has one of the better tackling techniques you'll see in a young player. He's a smaller guy who hasn't converted to tacos yet, but I'm rather fond of him. He knows his place and he sticks to the edge lands and I can respect that."
"Our next prospect is another one of those just not really worth mentioning. I'm not sure I should even bring his name up, he's not worth looking into. Still, Mike put him on the list. Fabricio Baldari. Young guy who went to Minnesota. He likes to focus on strength, which to me doesn't really fit his stature at 280 pounds. He's another who claims to be helping by pushing the offensive line, but he only creates more obstacles in the back ground. Really not worth spending your time on."
"We're really digging into the bottom of the barrel for our final prospect here. Chuck Bartowski has a lot of burst off the edge and can really disrupt the ability of the interior to collapse. He's light, he has a lot of finesse, but that's really not what you're looking for here. This is someone simply doesn't know his job. The more people you put in the back field, the more difficult it makes it for us defensive tackles to get back there. Maybe with a bit of coaching he'd be okay, but he simply isn't ready for the big leagues yet."
Defensive Tackle
Background yelling. "What do you mean I can't insult every edge rusher declaring eligibility?" Some very frustrated sounding yelling from Mike. "I don't know what you're talking about, Mike. I can't help that those guys aren't ready for play. If they didn't want to year the truth, they should have prepared better. For the last time, I am not concerned that they might get to the quarterback before me!" Bjørn rolls his eyes and focuses back on the camera. "We finally get to talk about the most important group of players. Our defensive tackles. Now I know, I know. You think we're getting to the climax early. You're all here for this. It'll be fine, I promise. I'm sure there are players at some of the lesser positions to talk about still, so stay tuned in."
"If we're looking at the start of our list, we get to start with Abashai Williams. He comes from Texas, so that's always a plus. He's also one of the bigger defensive linemen in the class a 310 pounds. He's a little bit smarter than some of the other guys you might find at this position, but how is that relevant here? In the interior, we know our jobs. Run through people and ABSOLUTELY RAVAGE THE TINY MAN!" Bjørn glances at the camera. "Got a little carried away there. It just gets excited. This guy isn't very strong and he isn't very fast. I think he'll find himself struggling to get to the tiny man. Maybe he should have spent more time in the gym and less time in the books."
"I've got to show this next prospect a little respect. John-Caleb Bradberton on paper may not be the best to take. He doesn't seem well suited for the job initially. He comes from Rhode Island which isn't exactly known for football pedigree. He graduated from Boston College, which is even less known for football pedigree. You would thing Bradberton was a hopeless cause. Then you look at the tape and you see a giant mammoth of a man with the strength to back it up. I am a strong believer that crushing the quarterback is your primary job in the center of a defense and Bradberton can do that in a different way. He has a rare mixture of size and strength that gives him the ability to not only take down the man behind the line, but take down the line with him. Its not uncommon to see this man wrap up the center and his precious cargo all in one. I can respect that."
"Jake Howe brings me to a huge question mark. I'm a huge fan of defensive tackles. There aren't many who miss my eye when I'm scouting the competition. This prospect flew under the radar. Literally, under it. The guy is 6'1. There are halfbacks that tower over him. I am going to have to assume that what he lacks in size, he makes up for pure, unadulterated hate and spite. He's another of those that sacrificed the gym for books only his choice may have stunted his growth entirely!"
At the next name Bjørn frowns deeply and furrows his brow. "Oh and now things get complicated. This is a prospect that both makes my heart race and breaks it all in the same breath. Trae Bacon. I admire this man. He has modeled his game almost identical to the style I have. I have to respect his style and his ability. He's big, he's fast, he's strong. Bacon it built to tear through the offensive line like greased pig. He shares my absolute enthusiasm for crushing the nesting peacocks that stand behind the offensive line. The way he moves, the way he walks, the way he carries himself is all a mirror of who I am. He stands for everything that I am. He is the perfect prospect and it is difficult to find anything negative for the perfect, wonderful creature. And that's where it gets complicated. There is only two ways this ends. We either become teammates and create the world's most beautiful synergy of backfield chaos and mayhem or we don't and we become bitter and harsh rivals. I am sorry you beautiful man, but the chances of the beautiful friendship that could be every happening is looking unlikely. I can only find solace in the fact that at home games, I will have made sure there are no tacos available to you." More of Mike's yelling. "That's where you're wrong, Mike! I'll damn well eat every taco within a 20 mile radius of the stadium and you'll damn well deal with it!"
"One of the newer prospects to throw his name in the ring is Big Mac. I'm not entirely sure if that's his name or simply what he eats in bulk, but this is a massive man. 6'6 and 310 pounds makes Big Mac a big boy. He's not as enthusiastic about getting after the quarterback as I am, but it's not from a lack of ability. He's one of the stronger defensive tackles in this group and I could see him making waves in the back field. Ability should meet effort. Get a stick and some cheeseburgers to hang at the end and I think you have a serious prospect here."
"Finally, but most importantly, there is Bjørn Ironside. That's me. You all know what I am. You're watching my stream, you've followed me on this journey. I'm a large force of nature with only one goal in mind. Winning games. I don't know anyone in this class who can do it better than me, so if you're looking for a prospect to get after the tiny man then you can start and stop right here. I'm everything you need."
Linebacker
Bjørn waves at the camera. "Alright now, don't leave me now. I know we're though the best part, but stick with me. Next we talk about some of my favorite players. The guys at the second level. My wing men. The linebackers. Bjørn Ironside may be great and all, but even I can't be everywhere at once. These guys do their best to cover where I can't be."
"Jah Harris starts off looking good with a pretty decent pedigree. He hails from Alabama, but then that's where it went south. For some reason he decided to stumble along the way and get lost at the University of Washington. I'm not sure if he was planning a football career, but a home grown Alabama prospect leaving Alabama to go to the University of Washington? That screams to me that either he wasn't good enough to stay in Alabama or he's afraid of a little competition. Either way he might be a flight risk. From his tapes, he seems to have one of the better tackling techniques I've seen. Unfortunately he's a little slow. Actually, he sometimes resembles Kelvin Benjamin after second breakfast. He struggles to get sideline to sideline so often he's ends up too far away from plays to make use of his skills."
"Now we're going to take a look at the 240 pound Brazilian, Junior Lopez. He was brought into football late in life, but an LSU scout managed to track him down and offer him a spot. As is tradition, LSU managed to snag some serious talent here and then proceeded to do absolutely nothing with it. I like Lopez's intangibles. He's fast and has a great tackling technique. He glides from sideline to sideline, tracking the ball carrier with relative ease.This man's even received an endorsement from J-Lo. That has to count for something because at the very least, she's a woman who knows her tight ends."
"It is hard to say much about Ransom Stoddard. He's from the state of Montana and graduated from Boise. If this was an origin story, it'd be a tragically boring one. Lucky for him, his skill set isn't quite as boring as the state he was born in. He's quick on his feet and hits with the best prospects in this group. He's also got size on his side at 250 pounds, making him a bigger guy. When he comes at you at full speed, you're going to feel him. Hard."
"When you have a name like Marlo Smart, you'd expect intelligence to be a key factor in your life. I feel as if a lot of people in this world want to live up to their names. Smart is not one of those people. Born and raised in New Orleans less than 100 miles from a multitude of superior schools, Smart decided to instead go over 100 miles to the University of Delaware. Assuming that's he not afraid of competition, I'll have to count this as marks against his intelligence. Mix that with the fact that he's one of those linebackers who thinks he can get to the quarterback quicker than me and I start wondering what color crayon is his favorite color. Sure, he's as quick as other in the class and has a little more strength and stamina than they do. This comes with one of the worst tackling techniques though. While that is something that can be taught, I'm not sure if I'd take the flight risk on this man's brain and how many more hits it can take." A bit of loud banging in the background, followed by more yelling. "No, Mike! I'm not just going to insult all the pass rushing linebackers either. If there is one worth giving compliments to, I'll give them. These guys are just bad, get off me! Remember, I'm doing this with no emotions attached. Unbiased grading!"
"Net Gaines will really have to live by his name sake and do a lot of gaining to make a huge impact in the league. He's likely the smallest linebacker in this class and isn't the greatest at bringing down a runner, which may be directly related to his size. I do have to give him credit where it is due. Despite not having a prestigious football pedigree though Portland State, Gaines has an eye for the ball. He's one of the faster linebackers in this group of prospects and has quick feet. He's good at arriving at where the ball will be and that's a huge strength for him. If you can look past the fact that he'll never be larger than 5'11, this could be a good pickup for you."
"Oh! Finally. We're now getting to one of my favorite players in this class. Maurice Virtanen, the 255 pound run stopper. Talking about a pedigree. This guy comes out of Finland, Nordic blood running in his veins. He too found his way here to attend a Michigan college. It's not the best Michigan college, but still better than most. He fully embraces his ancestors with a hard hitting style that often puts him in the trenches. He's the kind of guy who comes down to plug the holes I make in the line to make sure nothing gets out behind me. He's the kind of true wing man you can rely on. He's no defensive tackle, but he puts his best foot forward and I like his style."
"On paper, you would think that Thudd Kassel would be my kind of player. He's 6'4, 253 pounds and he loves to stuff the run. He was born in Texas, a state known for producing some of the cream of the crop in our sport. He has size, he has environment. Then he decided to go to Red Valley State. When you're a top prospect and you choose to go somewhere like Red Valley State, I have to question your commitment to football. That alone brings Kassel down my board, which is a shame because I wanted to like him."
"He has one heck of a name, but Chico De La Agua is one of those players I can get behind. At 250 pounds, he's a big man who loves to get down and dirty at the line. He carries a solid mixture of strength, speed, and technique to the table that really brings his abilities into focus. Unfortunately he went to UCONN. I'll stop there because nothing good can come of it. That said he's shown an effort to better himself since declaring for draft eligibility. I feel like he could be one of the surprises coming out of this class."
"Now we reach the biggest boy in this line up. Matt Ammons weighed in at 260 pounds and he looks every bit of it. He's a massive monster in the middle of a defense and is an imposing presence. He has strength and technique to spare and when he hits you, its not an impact you recover from quickly. That's where the good news ends for this prospect. He's slow. Incredibly so. When i saw him trying to get combine scores, I watched the timing judge eat an entire steak fajita waiting for Ammons to complete his 40. This boy flat out can't run. That said, put him close to the line and don't expect him to cover much ground and he might can do some work for you." (4)
"Otto VanJensen isn't much to talk about for our last prospect. A Kent State graduate who thinks he can play football? The dude might as well be the little engine that could. He's an athletic prospect who looks capable of doing it all to be sure, but he simply doesn't know his role. He doesn't stay in the middle. He doesn't cover, he doesn't fight in the trenches. He just looks for holes and tries to beat me to the quarterback. He doesn't do any of the work and just looks to take the glory. I know your game, Mr VanJensen. He might as well keep tooting along because I don't think he's proper for the league." More unintelligible yelling. "Yeah, so what Mike? So what if he's one of the faster guys at the position? If he doesn't know how to play it, he doesn't get credit for being able to run!"
Cornerback
"With my buddies at the second level done, its now time to move to the next position. Which is those guys." Bjørn pauses, picks up a notebook and starts thumbing through it. "Oh! Oh those guys. Secondary players. I forgot those guys were back there. Yeah, they're a thing that exists. Alright. We'll start with corner backs. Is that right?" Background yelling. "I'm trying to stick to the script, Mike! Maybe if someone hadn't written such a shit script, we wouldn't be here!" More background yelling. "You can't quit, Mike! I don't even pay you!"
"We're kicking this off with Korrin Abernathy. He looks like a pretty balanced athlete. The eye test shows good speed, good tackling technique. And when you look at his size, you can see WHAT THE FUCK!?" Bjørn quickly disappears off the camera. "Mike! This guy is tiny! Its a tiny human! What even is this guy?" Humored background yelling. "What do you mean they're almost all like that!? They're basically babies! How do they hit things!?" More humored background yelling. "So if they play well, they're not supposed to hit things? Then why are they playing football?!" A bit more background yelling. "I don't get it, but lets get back to it." Bjørn walks back into camera view. "Okay, so what are we talking about? Abernathy looks like one of the smarter guys at this position until you see that he was born in Detroit. And then decided to go fucking Marshall. There are at least four colleges in the state that are better alternatives, Korrin. What the hell were you thinking? No wonder you're out here trying to get yourself killed as a tiny human."
"Caleb Beck I at least immediately have to give credit for not being completely suicidal. He at least broke 200 pounds, good on you. He's got quick feet and looks like he should be able to stay tight with some of the better route runners in the class. God forbid he actually has to tackle something though. He's another project out of the land of ice and snow and almost football, but at least he went to Auburn which at least is a rival to a decent football team."
Bjørn emits what is almost a girlish squeal. "But Miiiike! Why are they all so small? They're almost cute. Still, let's move on to Noah Grimmer. He looks a little slower than some of the others at this position, but he seems to be one of the smarter players. Born in Indiana, he took it upon himself to attend LSU. LSU is a known talent farm who somehow repeatedly fails to compete in any real capacity, so you know the kid has something there. I can give him a few points there."
"Hey, Mike! I'm pretty sure you lied to me. They're getting a little bigger! this one is 6'3. Jack Mahoff. They're not all as tiny as you say! Mahoff is actually one of the fastest guys in this class. He seems to excel at one on one and he has a pretty good eye for the ball. Everything else about him is as unfortunate as the fact that he decided to attend Maryland in hopes of pursuing a football career. Not the best move a prospect can make."
"Justin Kehoe is a Mizzou graduate who was born and raised in the area. This prospect is middle of the pack in speed, lower end of the pack in strength, hasn't refined his tackling technique, and stands at a depressing 6 foot even. The only bright spot I can see in his scouting report is that he's a little be more intelligent than his peers. But then again, when you choose to play a sport this physical and his size you have to be brave or dumb. If he's the smartest end of these prospects, no wonder these small dudes are in the sport. They don't know any better!"
"Now Rolo Tomassi is a player with a skill set I can get behind. Tomassi is on the larger end of the spectrum for this group. He's fast, has great hands, and has an uncanny ability to always find the ball. He looks more like a receiver and he plays like one too. For that alone this guys gets points from me because he chose the superior side of the ball. That said, he has lived his entire life in the state of mind known as California. I would have to question his ability to get physical. Still, keep doing your thing Tomassi and try not to die out there!"
"When we look at David Rector, we see that- Jesus Christ, Mike! They're getting tiny again! This poor man is like 195 pounds. What do these guys do when they get hit by the offensive line?" Informative screaming. "What do you mean they don't get hit by the offensive line? They don't get dirty with the big guys? I wouldn't want to be back there. Who spends their entire time on the field trying to avoid contact? Doesn't sound very fun. But I digress, back to the topic. This man is a Jim Thorpe award recipient who is actually one of the fastest guys here. He's has decent hands and is smart about his positioning. That said, this guy couldn't tackle a yapping chihuahua on his best day so don't expect him to make open field stops. Still, David Rector when he hardly knew her!"
"I am not talking about this one, Mike!" Background yelling. "He literally doesn't have enough body mass to even be worth talking about! He's so itty bitty!" More background yelling. "Yeah, well. Fuck you too, Mike. So I suppose we need to talk about this wisp of a man named-" Bjørn stares at the projection screen. "He's got one of those names too, Mike! Why'd you put him on the list?" Bjørn grumbles and moves his pointer on the screen towards DaQuarrion M'Wehwordson. "Other than stamina, this prospect is spectacularly average at everything else. Middle of the pack across the board. Which makes sense because you don't go to Boston College to excel at anything. It looks like he's been trying to beef up in the off season, so he may put on some weight. That said, GMs be careful about this one unless you want to see someone straight up die when a strong wind hits the field."
Bjørn's face contorts and he shakes his head. "My friends, can we all have a moment of silence for my poor, poor friend here. Zach Bailey comes in at 180 pounds. 180 pounds, guys! He apparently has some talent because he managed to make it and succeed on an LSU roster that is usually managed into mediocrity. He's got the best hands in his position class and looks like he has the intangibles to be a decent ball hawk. That said, in a fight between this guy and a house cat? I'm putting the farm on the house cat."
"Fresno State state. Really? That's what you're going with? If you're wanting to play professional football and someone asks you for football experience, you don't say Fresno State. You make something up because no matter what you make up, it'll have you sounding better than Fresno State. Still, that is where tiny man Tyler Genis decided to spend his college career. I can't say too much about this man because I'm not sure Fresno State cares enough about football to invest in cameras so I can did up game film. From what I have seen, he's an agile guy with good feet who spends a lot of time working on his game. He could end up being a pretty decent prospect, but boy do I have questions about how his pads fit on his small frame."
"Next up we have my man, Louisiana Purchase. If I'm being fair, this man is as small as the rest of them at 185 pounds. He comes from USC, which is something all of its own. The best thing to come out of USC in the last decade was Mark Sanchez and we all saw how that ended. He's quick and agile on his feet, but most of these guys are. Nothing about him makes him stand out among his peers. Until you look at that name. Louisiana Purchase. When you have that name on your roster, you know you're getting something good. I don't know that he can tackle or hit, but I'm sure he'd make a great mascot because that name is a morale booster!"
"Xavien Adams in the last prospect in this group. This guy is fast on tape. In fact he's likely the single fastest prospect here. That said, to reach these blazing speeds, he sacrificed literally everything else. He comes from Florida, so we can't guarantee a lack of incidents, but if you're looking for someone who can run track with the receivers, this is your man. If you want literally anything else, you should probably skip this one for now. Which wouldn't be hard. He's so thin, it's not easy to miss him."
Safety
Bjørn lets out a long yawn. "Maybe you guys were right. Maybe all the fun did end when we got past the defensive tackles. Still, after those guys, it can only go up from here. Right?" Background yelling. "What do you mean these dudes are basically the same size!?" More yelling. "There are four of these guys back there!? Jesus, it's a miracle that we play football games instead of setting up trauma wards. Still, Mike insists I stick to the script so I suppose we have to talk about safeties. I don't know why they're called that. There's nothing safe about being that small and getting hit by grown men running at full speed. More of a flight risk if you ask me." Background yelling. "Fine, Mike! The script."
"First up you have Pete Parker. This man is a menace! He's a criminal! He needs to be brought to justice immediately! He seems to be insistent on causing chaos and destruction wherever he goes. He can't be trusted and we should hunt him down-" Incomprehensible yelling. "Oh! Pete Parker. Not Pete. Thanks, Mike! This guy has a decent build. He's quick and a bit of a ball hawk. He has a sense for the ball that everyone calls his spider sense, but apparently that's a joke because this man is clearly not spider man. If he were, he wouldn't look so abysmal when tackling."
"Nicholas Grimmer hails from Indiana and went to the prestigious university of- What the hell is this? UPU? What is an UPU? Wait, a bet that's where Oompa Loompas go to get their degrees. Which perfectly explains this man's stature. He's by far one of the slowest small guys I've ever seen and because he plays so far away from the action, he struggles getting to the ball. He has stamina going for him though, so at least when he finally makes it to the play, he isn't tired."
"Our next prospect is Achilles Babcock. He's smarter than almost any other prospect declaring eligibility for the draft. That is legitimately the only good thing I can say about his game as everything else is depressingly average. That's probably why I've never heard EWU college before. Clearly they're an academic school who doesn't know much about how to play football."
"Hailing from Boston College, you have JimJam FlimFlam. Seriously, why do all these guys go to Boston College? Its almost like they're intentionally trying to sabotage their own draft stock because they like the challenge of being the underdog. That is the only thing I can come up with that makes any semblance of sense. Still, I have to give JimJam FlimFlam credit. Simply because he goes by JimJam FlimFlam. Everyone wants to say JimJam FlimFlam. Everyone wants to scream JimJam FlimFlam. I can hear the crowds going wild for JimJam FlimFlam." Background yelling. "You know what, Mike? I'll say it as many times as I want! JimJam FlimFlam, JimJam FlimFlam, JimJam FlimFlam! Whooph. Got it out of my system. Its good he has a pretty incredible name because he's small and nothing about his game looks unique or stands out. Still, JimJam FlimFlam is someone you want on your team for the mere sake of JimJam FlimFlam."
"Why? What is wrong with you? How is there more than one athlete in this prospect class who managed to pull off a feat like this? Howard Ryan. This grew up in the state of Texas where they live, breathe, and bleed football. He then got in a car to drive to college, got lost along the way, and somehow ending up in FUCKING DELAWARE. Why would you go to the University of Delaware with literally 30 more prestigious football schools between Texas and Delaware? Its like these kids don't even like football, they just got bullied into it by their dads so the found a way to be in the sport without having to compete!" Bjørn inhales deeply and then lets it out slow. "Now then, where were we? Not in Delaware, that's for sure. Mr. Ryan has more stamina than many of the other prospects here and is a little faster too. He's not the worst athlete on the list. Fucking Delaware."
"Wayne Howyanow. I'm doing just fine, thanks for asking Wayne. Howyanow is a shower, not a grower. At 5'11 most athletes in this league will tower over him. Its a good thing he makes

Haha! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was tough because a lot of our prospects don't really have any additional information at all, so I really had to work with what I could quickly dig up.
