bit came class definitely draft fighting four gave heard learned maybe picks rookie
It's definitely unusual. We heard about that from a lot of people. They congratulated us. Usually, you have one maybe that makes a team. But to have a rookie free-agent class like this is special. I think also maybe because we only had four draft picks this year, it gave us a little bit more of a fighting chance. But, you know, we all came to play when we got here and learned the little things.

There were a lot of things I could have done better: filling my gaps properly, taking a little more physical approach to the game.
