Batten ready to build NFL career brick by brick

[The Spaz]

Bills sixth-round pick Danny Batten is an outside linebacker prospect that took the road less traveled to the NFL. He made the most of his college career at South Dakota State, earning Missouri Valley Conference Co-Defensive Player of the Year honors, which helped land him a postseason all-star appearance in the Texas vs. the Nation game.

Who knew a well placed brick would prove more instrumental in helping Batten get to that game in the first place?

That's a crazy story although I probably would have broken the window a lot sooner... especially since it was a rental.

Danny Batten: "I'm not going to let them cut me." (http://www.wgr550.com/Danny-Batten---I-m-not-going-to-let-them-cut-me--/6909166)
"With the 192nd pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select Danny Batten, defensive end, South Dakota State." You could almost hear the collective remark from every Bills fan still watching the draft, then in its sixth round. "Who?!?!" Well, it's time to get a bit more acquainted with one of the Bills' unknowns. Bills fans, meet your new outside linebacker, Danny Batten.

This guy was a member at the gym i worked at here in AZ. Freakish manchild. He went to a rival high school of mine about 5 miles away from me. 5 Miles in the other direction was the high school Fitzpatrick went to. Nice seeing these guys get their chance after all the hard work :up:
