What They're Saying
Offensive Line Prospects on the Combine, Senior Bowl and Heading to the NFL...
"It's done a lot for my family, and I'm a big fan of it. I don't even know if I could play arena ball. It takes a different type of player." - USC Sam Baker on his father, David, who is commissioner of the Arena Football League
“At the end of the day, each team needs a right tackle and a left tackle. I feel like I can play either. I played three years at right and one at left, and I was very successful at (both). I’ve played right my whole life and if that’s where they want me, that’s what I’ll do. If it’s left, and that’s what teams need, that’s where I’ll go.” - Boston College Gosder Cherilus on playing right or left tackle
"I gave up one sack this year. I've given up two in my career." - Michigan tackle Jake Long on his career
“I’d say my primary position is guard. I am also comfortable at tackle. Wherever a team wants to draft me, either position, I feel comfortable playing.” - Virginia guard Branden Albert on playing multiple positions
"Of course they'd like me to play some guard, I'm willing to play whatever they want me to play -- including fullback." - Wake Forest center Steve Justice on playing multiple positions
