@DrewBrees Likes to Just Truck Guys, Says Scout in 2001

For those of you who don't watch the Dan Patrick Show, this week he's been having his NFL player guests read the scouting reports on them from when they headed into the draft. Some are better than others (Jim Harbaugh was happy to see someone said he had a strong arm; JJ Watt was said to be a long shot to be a dominant pass rusher), but of course we're a bit partial to our old friend Drew. 

The whole thing is obviously fun but Drew interpreting the not avoiding contact as meaning he just likes to mow guys down is the best. Mainly because it's the kind of faux bravado many of us would put forth -- choosing to read "He's not too bright with this kind of decision" to mean "He's a monster."

Oh, Drew, we can't wait for you to come home to West Lafayette. (If we just start saying it like it's fact, maybe it'll happen.)
