Everybody wants to be a first round pick.
You know, been on non-guaranteed deals, been a second round pick, been kinda, sorta viewed as a first round pick.
In the NFL you get one first-round draft pick if you're lucky. You couldn't really outwork anybody else. In college I could recruit ten players with first-round talent every year.
You pick guys in the first round - whenever you pick guys - you pick them for a reason.
The thing is, everybody wants to be famous. Everybody wants to be successful. Everybody wants to be that dude, but not everybody wants to do the work for it. And I think that's probably one of the reasons why there's so many juniors and only a couple that make it. Because I really wanted it. I wanted it real bad.
Everybody in life is pursuing money: left, right, charity, nonprofits, everybody's pursuing money. Everybody wants a raise. Everybody wants to improve their standard of living. Everybody wants to be rich, and especially those that go to Washington.
You're only a first-round pick for one year.
I felt like I was a first-round pick.
If I had stayed with football in college, I probably would have been a first-round pick.
My whole career, I've been an underdog, I've been underestimated. Therefore, I've had a chip on my shoulder my entire career. Being drafted in the second round when you think you're supposed to be in the first round, a lottery pick, the chip grows bigger. And you have more to prove.
Being a first-round draft pick means nothing to me without my education.
Everybody wants that spot: everybody wants to beat Nicola Adams. Everybody wants to be the Olympic champion; everybody wants to beat the Olympic champion. It's made me train that much harder and stay that much more focused. I guess, in a way, I've got them to thank for keeping me motivated and focused on the job I need to do.
We haven't achieved really big things yet with the U.S., so I think everybody wants to be the first one, and that's why everybody is so motivated to develop yourself and to win the first big trophy for the country.
Everybody wants to do something to help, but nobody wants to be first.
Everybody wants to do something to help, but nobody wants to be the first.
When you're a first-round pick and you get to the big leagues at 22, there's almost a sense that you've got to mature.
It just doesn't go with my story to be a first round pick, because I had to grind my whole life.
