*Tyler Oles(CB) Pre-draft press conference

[Oles]

What kind of role do you see yourself having on your new team off the field your rookie year?  Do you see that role changing after a few years?

What kind of player do you want to be known as?

Do you prefer to go to an already great defense and learn from the pros, or be a leader on a weaker defense?

Which wide receiver, current or prospect, do you most want to line up against? 

Which wide receiver prospect do you think will be the best?

I'm not sure what kind of role I see myself having. Most of it is going to depend on the team that drafts me. Going to somewhere like the Liberty who are a bit more unknown will probably lead to a larger role, presumably with a chance to start and be a big part of the locker room, compared to a team like the Outlaws where I may not start right away and the locker room is already established. The second part depends on the team as well, as my role with the Outlaws would change over time, but my role with a team like the Hawks would probably stay the same should I play well, as they would probably ask me to start early.

I want to be known as one of, if not the best CBs in the league, a team player who helps his team win the ultimate goal in the Ultimus trophy.

I don't know where I would prefer to go, each scenario has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. The chance to learn will be better for long term success, but learning behind someone who stays with the team a while could lead to me never really getting a chance to start and not having the opportunity to grow with game experience. If I had to pick I'd rather go to an already established defense, but I'm open to whatever scenario I enter when I am picked.

If I got the chance I would love to shutdown Josh Garden, he's the best WR in the league to me and to be able to shut him down would make a great case for being the best CB in the league.

Fox North has the best chance to be the best of this draft class. It's already been determined he will be lining up alongside Lincoln Jefferson. He will go into Philly and be the number 2 WR immediately. He's going into a great situation where they have a top WR and a top RB. The only question there is whether Jameis Christ is the answer at QB, although it will be a pretty good situation for Christ as well
