I haven't heard any concern from anybody. He's made a remarkable recovery for a guy that had the problems he did. |
I think every situation is different. It depends on what that particular team is looking for, what side of the ball it needs help. |
I think he has the ability to play much better than he has been. This is another guy who has to understand that he's now moving up a class. |
I think sometimes, when you're close to somebody, you might overvalue a person. And I'm close to Young. But I've seen what the guy has done. I just think he's a pretty special player. |
I would imagine they are getting a reputation as a passing team. And Texas has a reputation now that they can go out and get anybody. |
I'm afraid he's in for a crushed ego. |
I'm sure people have a place in mind for him. But I don't know what that is. |
If you go back to last year, he lined up on Mark Clayton of Oklahoma and he limited Clayton to three short passes against him, ... I think this guy can play corner in the NFL. He can play safety. He can play the nickel corner, and he's got good character. |

If you want to go by past history say who is the safest guy, the safest pick is an established left tackle like this guy. |
In my evaluation of the guy, I think he has really good mechanics and good velocity on the ball, which is a big thing when you play in a stadium that has a lot of wind like (the Jets) do. I think it was a good pick. I'd be really surprised if he doesn't end up being a pretty good player for them. |
It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen, ... A linebacker for the Cardinals was hollering, 'Choke, Fritsch, choke!' and Dave Edwards, our upback on the protection team, said, 'He can't understand English.' |
It's almost like in horse racing, ... when you drop a horse down in class they win. |
It's like a golf tournament where a bunch of guys are 10 handicappers and a few guys are zero handicappers. Thomas is a zero handicapper. |
Leaf got the big contract and that was his utopia - he didn't want to work for anything else. That's what makes this so hard: You don't know how guys are going to respond to financial success, if they will still work hard. If you knew that, you wouldn't have so many busts. |
