As a big Dallas Cowboys fan, I always admired their wide receivers. Michael Irvin is the top of the totem pole, but my prime years of watching the Cowboys involved Dez Bryant. I picked up football at a young age and really loved just catching the ball. I loved just running out in the open field and trying to get under the ball and haul it in. Watching those Cowboy receivers really helped me keep driving to where I am today.
As I trained and went through high school and college, Dez Bryant was my boy. He was a big body, strong like a bull, and had crisp routes. He was a big target in the red zone as well, which made him his quarterback's favourite target. That's what I wanted to be. I worked to emulate his game and trained to get the same body as him. I wanted to be that strong wide receiver who over powers cornerbacks.
Looking at my career now, I think I've really become a Dez Bryant type. My strength and big frame helped me dominate the DSFL which helped me become the first overall pick with the San Jose SaberCats. As for off the field, I try not to be a diva like Bryant seemed to be, but sometimes a wide receiver can't help it. Just ask my GMs.
