00:00And Travis Hunter has told Garrett Podell of CBS Sports

00:05that if an NFL team wanted him to commit to playing a single position,

00:10he would rather not play football at all, Wiggy.

00:14All right.

00:16Here's a quote.

00:17It's never playing football again because I've been doing it my whole life

00:22and I love being on the football field.

00:24We have some audio on this, Shime, for they said it.

00:28Am I correct about that?

00:28So Ryan Clark of ESPN is talking about Travis Hunter and said,

00:32if he's not going to play both ways, he's not even worth a top five pick.

00:35Here was Ryan Clark.

00:37If you don't play Travis Hunter on both sides of the football,

00:42you don't need to draft Travis Hunter in the top three.

00:45And I know people are going to kill me for this, but hear me out.

00:48Travis Hunter is not a top three pick as a wide receiver.

00:53Travis Hunter is not Julio Jones.

00:55Travis Hunter is not Randy Moss.

00:57Travis Hunter is not Larry Fitzgerald.

00:59Travis Hunter is not Marvin Harrison.

01:01Travis Hunter is not a top three pick on the defensive side of the ball.

01:05He's not either of the Woodson's pick one.

01:07He's not Charles.

01:08He's not Charles.

01:09He's not Rod.

01:10He's not Deion Sanders.

01:11He's not Champ Bailey.

01:13Those are the sorts of people that you pick that play one position,

01:16one skill position that early in the draft.

01:19He's none of them.

01:20All right.

01:21I agree.

01:22Listen, I agree with Ryan Clark.

01:25I think what's going to happen with Travis Hunter, you're going to draft him,

01:28put him at one position full time, and then you'll sprinkle him in here and there

01:34on the other side.

01:35Is he going to be okay with being sprinkled in?

01:38He's going to have no choice.

01:39Does that comment give you diva vibes, or you just appreciate the fact that he is

01:44passionate about the sport?

01:46I think it's a little bit of him kind of pandering and being like,

01:51ow, I want to play both ways.

01:54If not, he's not going to take his ball and go home because he knows there's nowhere else

01:58to go.

01:59I don't think it's diva.

02:00It's a diva move.

02:00I think that he knows that maybe one team in the top four or five are planning on telling

02:07him that, and so he's putting that out there right now for them to hear him loud and clear.

02:11Yeah.

02:11Okay.

02:11So meaning that there's a team that's saying, you're not coming here and playing both ways

02:16or playing more than one way.
