*Horne Not Attending S8 NSFL Draft

[iseedoug]

This presser will be open for any and all questions until 5/19 at 10:00pm EST

From ExemplaryChad:

What do you bring to a locker room? How would you say you get along with teammates? Are you a quiet, unassuming guy or do you like to leave a stronger impression?

- I think I bring some "team rah rah" if you will to the locker room. If you ask the Luchadores guys, I like to make everything a our team vs the enemy situation. I also like talking position strategy in the locker room: who should update what, where should they play, what do we need to update to fix our issues, etc. I like having a front office that entertains these discussions (like Lucha). To my knowledge, the guys in the Luchadores locker room like me and we all get along. I am somewhere in between strong impression and quiet.

Where do you anticipate going in the draft? Team and/or position.

- I definitely anticipate going early in the first round, but I have no idea exactly where. I have had interest from 4 teams who have picks all over the board. I think this depends on team needs and if a team wants my guy Chad Pennington over me or not. If a team is the market for a power rusher that can play LB or DE, Chad and I are very comparable. Chad and I are both guys who I think bring a lot to the locker room and the game. Chad is a little bit more experience than me though, which may give him the nudge over me. (a well deserved nudge, Chad had a killer DSFL season with 130 tackles in the reg season).

Who is your favorite NSFL player that you DON'T know personally (since you mentioned some guys in your other announcement that you do know)?

- From watching the NSFL games, I like the big time LBs: Sharpei, Roenick, O'Sullivan, Ishigawa. They are all guys I do not know personally (or even know what their user name is), but love the stat lines they drop in game.

What do you think will be your favorite thing about playing in the NSFL, as opposed to the DSFL?

- I think knowing a team can be together for longer than a year or two is nice. I like to see the team build and work together. While we definitely did this over the season in the DSFL, the NSFL allows this to be at a longer and bigger scale. I also think the trade market will be interesting in the NSFL, which is not very active in the DSFL (for good reason).
