Bradshaw doesn't bite
Thinking fantasy first, I tried to get something today from Ahmad Bradshaw about his ever-growing role in the Giants backfield. Does he want to start? Is he impressed that his teammates all said he was the surest future star on the team? What does he need to work on this offseason?
He didn't bite. He said all the right things that he would happy sharing the ball with Brandon Jacobs and that he doesn't make the game plan. With both players under contract for a while, it's the only attitude to have. I think Bradshaw's development will ultimately hurt Jacobs, especially when Bradshaw rounds out his game.
While talking to him, I couldn't help thinking of a classic story I heard about when Bradshaw was drafted.
Someone within the Giants recounts the war room on draft day. Everyone is in agreement that Bradshaw is the pick. They call in the name, and someone at the Draft begins to walk his card to the podium. Suddenly, a panicked voice is heard in the draft room.
"Wait, wait, is this the guy who set his roomate on fire while he was in college?"
Silence. Papers shuffle, panicked rifling through scouting reports.
"Ah no, don't worry," another relieved voice calls out. "He only stole a couple Playstations."
Cheers all around.
