Just got the newest issue of Bills Digest
Q: What can you tell us about John?
A: He's a soft spoken , well mannered kid who's really what college football is all about.
Q:What are his strenghts on the field?
A: Probably his overall quickness and instincts. If you look at all those guys we had over there in Mairo and Manny in particular, those guys their first step off the football field is as good as any. If you were to take those three individuals and line them up and see who would win in a race for 5 yards, John would win every race. And thats a testament to his athleticism because he really is ubelievable.
Q: With his quickness and ability, is he best suited to play 3 technique in the NFL? Or can he do both?
A: I think he's capable of doing both. I think he's better suited to play the 3 technique because of his quickness and ability to disrupt.
Q: Is he ready to make an immediate impact in the NFL or does he need some time to develop?
A: John needs to be seasoned, but at the same time, just like his first year of starting for us he probably wasn't ready to play. But I think that his attributes and his youth and ambition are going to overcome alot of deficiencies in his game right now
Q:Some critics said it was a reach by the bills-what are your thoughts on that?
A: The same people said N.C. State wasn't good on defense, too. But look at what these guys accomplished-a No.1 ranking in total defensea year ago and a No. 4 ranking last year.
