I was just chilling on my couch, eating taffy. Man, after I didn't hear my name in the first 3 rounds, I wanted to turn off the TV. No body in my family predicted I fall this far, and the room was silent. I had met with some GMs and done some pre-draft workouts, and all the GMs I met with seemed ecstatic to have a chance to select me. To be honest, I was dosing off, until
"With the 29th pick in the S15 DSFL Draft, the Kansas City Coyotes select Terry Taffy from Ohio State University."
It was quiet as everyone in the room stared at me. My phone buzzed and the room exploded with laughter and congratulations. On the phone was the Yotes' GM.
"Congratulations of becoming a member of the Kansas City Coyotes. It make come as a surprise you fell so far, but if you keep grinding in the gym and on the field you silence a lot of the people that questioned you going that early. I think you'll become a special running back for us."
I wasn't too angry with falling so far, just surprised, but I was finally happy, the wait was over. I'm one step closer to my childhood dream of the NSFL.
