Thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us Andrew.


1) Some people speculated that coming from D3 would have lead to you sitting a year for experience. Do you think your performance in last nights game has shown them otherwise?
2) If asked to play TE for a season how would you feel?
3) Are there any teams in the NSFL you have/would like to exprest intrest in?
4) Any stat projections for this season?
5) How would you feel about ending up on the worst team of the season?

Mr. Kreklow, first things first, great game at the All-American Bowl

1) Can you tell us about the first thing that came to your mind after you got that interception?

2) Which do you think is the bigger necessity for a defensive player, being a gym rat or a student of the game?

3) If asked, could you be a leader in the locker room? If so what type of leader would you be?

4) What is gives you the better feeling, intercepting or sacking the quarterback?

5) Before a game what is the one song that is guaranteed to pump you up?

:interview:
What separates you from other prospects at your position?

Pure strength and a nose for the ball. Simply a play maker as it showed in the AAB.

:interview:
What is the biggest hardship you have had to overcome thus far in your life?

Losing 50 lbs to play LB

:interview:
What has surprised you the most about the pre draft process?

The competition. Everyone is much more talented than what I saw at the D3 level.
:interview:
How did you feel being awarded DPOTG in the All American Bowl?

It was an honor but this is just the beginning. I made some great plays out there but it wouldn't have been without my teammates.

Ryan Flock looked like a monster out there. Didn't make a ton of plays, but made a difference in other ways.

5) How would you feel about ending up on the worst team of the season?

1) Absolutely, some people may rag on D3 for not being tough enough, but I think I more than outplayed the competition at that level, and didn't skip a beat in the AAB.

2) I am open to playing any position. I played some TE in college and was successful but to be honest I need to work on my hands

3) Denver, Yellowknife, and Baltimore

4) I'm going to go out there and try to break records every year. Giving projections now would only make the competition uncomfortable

5) Are you asking how would I feel if I ended up on the worst team or If my team who I play for this year ends up the worst?

5) Before a game what is the one song that is guaranteed to pump you up?

1) Man it was great getting back out there and getting my hands on the ball once again. I was very happy.

2) I work on my strength a lot, but simply being a physical monster doesn't always cut it in the league. I love watching film and talking to former players about the ins and outs of this great game. So i'll go with the latter.

3) I can be a very vocal leader for the locker room. I was promoted to team captain my sophomore year of college because of my play on the field but I developed into a vocal leader.

4) There's nothing like giving your team the ball back. I love turnovers.

5) I am a big fan of metal. I'll go with any song by System of a Down.

Thank you! and for the last question specifically if your team ends up at the bottom of the standings at the end of the season.

Hey, Andrew. Chris Jones, the Baltimore Moon. After having a great game in the All Star Game, I want to hit you with a few questions.

1.) You mentioned Flock made an impact in other ways. What specifically did he do to make things easier for you?
2.) How would you feel about being on the field for extended time, say if the Offense can't stay on the field for long drives? Do you believe in your endurance?
3.) Seeing you get a safety and an interception, would you say that you are better against the pass or against the run?
4.) Where do you say your best suited position is on the field?
5.) Are you comfortable playing any LB position? What about DE in a 4-3?

[timeconsumer]

1) Is there anything you feel you could have done better in the AA game?
2) What quarterback archetype do you feel is the most dangerous?
3) What type of blitz are you most successful with?
4) Do you beat power with power or with speed?
5) Why did you choose the NSFL over the NFL?
