My Draft Memories: Nat Moore

[wang1993]

Nat Moore: “I thought I was going to be a Cowboy. I was being chaperoned and entertained by a Cowboys scout to Mike Pouncey Womens Jersey make sure I didn’t sign with the Nat Moore Womens Jersey World Football League before the draft. Ironically, the one team that I didn’t talk to the whole time was the team that drafted me, which was the Dolphins in the third round.” How did you celebrate being drafted? Moore: “I was in Gainesville at my apartment. I was still in school. Back in those days you could stay in school and come in and go through the minicamp and then you finished up in June and then you came back in late July. I don’t remember doing anything special, other than kicking the guy out from Dallas.” What did you http://www.teamdolphinsprostore.com/shop-by-players-nat-moore-jersey-c-1_43.html do in preparation to help your draft position as far as special workouts, etc.? Moore: “Nothing. I mean if I could play football then I could play football. If you didn’t look at the tapes and say, ‘Hmm, I think he can play,’ then I don’t know anything else I was going to do because I was Ryan Tannehill Youth Jersey doing that against the top competition in the SEC, the University of Miami and Florida State. I don’t think I could have shown anything I didn’t show already. If I went through college and proved I could play then going to all of these different camps, what’s it going to change? I’m not a big proponent of that. I think that sometimes because they go and they do that, they go through testing very well at the Combine, guys move up that are not players http://www.teamdolphinsprostore.com/shop-by-players-ndamukong-suh-jersey-c-1_44.html and then in the end teams get burned by that.” Was there something http://www.teamdolphinsprostore.com/shop-by-players-walt-aikens-jersey-c-1_49.html about your interviews with prospective coaches before the draft that stood out? Moore: “No, not really. I don’t even know what a Wonderlic test is. They checked out my health and talked to me about whether I’d be a wide receiver or a running back because I had been a running back and basically that was pretty much it.”
