With media members and players checking in at the Hotel it was a great opportunity to meet and chat with some players. Most were making their rounds chatting with NFL teams but also made themselves available to media. The teams that I noticed that were there were the Packers, Raiders, Colts, Dolphins, and Bears. Ted Thompson was there for Packers but I didn’t notice any other GM’s, mostly just scouts and team representatives.
The first interview I did was with Khaseem Greene LB from Rutgers.
Is there was an ideal position you want to play in the NFL?
I would be happy to play any linebacker spot, 4-3 OLB, 3-4 ILB or 3-4 OLB, I would be willing do what was asked of me. If the coaches asked me to play safety I would.
Is there a player you model your game after in the NFL?
Ray Lewis and Troy Polamalu
What do you like to do outside of football?
I’m a family man, I like to spend time with my daughter and I love to go bowling.
Are you any good?
I thought I was, but then I started bowling with some guys who average in the 240’s so it put my game into perspective.
Anyone on the Rutgers roster we should keep our eye on for next year?
Brandon Coleman (WR), Jamal and Jamil Merrel (LB’s)
-Greene to me came off and very friendly, engaging and humble. He was happy to answer questions and was very well spoken. Read the rest of this entry » «Sunday Senior Bowl observations and interviews with top prospects»
