QA With Lance Shulters in the Herald

[NaboCane]

We have GOT to get this guy under contract for the next few years. I like his grit and determination; he's one of those guys like Zach, he just won't be denied. We need more of those here. Here's an excerpt:

Q: OK, but you're a former Pro Bowl player now. You've made a name for yourself, so why still the chip?
A: ``You know what, I guess I'm just an angry person. You need to ask the teammates I've played with because my role has changed as I've gone from team to team. All I know is the role I've had on teams I've been on is to be the leader. I was the guy that players looked to for energy. I call it having venom and intensity. That's been my role.''

Q: Yeah, but that's kind of cliché, and it's been awhile since that 1998 draft.

A: ``Look man, [former Nebraska quarterback] Scott Frost got drafted before me [as a safety]. Scott Frost! And that eats me up and it still eats me up, and that's why I try to prove myself to people to this day. The Jets made a terrible mistake by passing on me. Other teams made a terrible mistake by passing on me. Scott Frost? Please.''

Remember, Scott Frost was an option QB at Nebraska. That's what he takes exception to. A quarterback with no experience at safety being drafted ahead of him as a safety.

PARCELLS of all people made that call.

Serves to illustrate once again what an inexact science the draft is; that guy like Shulters could be regarded lightly coming out, and that a guy like Zach falls to the 5th round.
