Berea, Ohio – With a week to the draft of the NFL, we do not know what position the two -way star Travis Hunter will play as a professional – and if he will play on both sides of the ball.
Cleveland Browns, Andrew Berry, thinks that Hunter is worth one of the best choices of the draft, even if he plays only one position, and compared him to the Los Angeles Dodgers star, Shohei Ohtani, to describe his value.
“It’s a bit like Ohtani, where when he plays a side, he’s an exceptional player,” Berry told his press conference in Prestraft on Thursday. “If he’s a launcher, he’s an exceptional player. You obviously get a unicorn if you use it in both directions.”
Hunter, evaluated the Perspective No. 2 of Scouts Inc., won the Heisman trophy in university football after playing 1,481 snaps in attack and defense, almost 300 more than any other FBS player. He recorded 15 captures of Touché, tied in the second row in the FBS, and intercepted four passes, tied third in the Big 12. Hunter, which is currently the favorite of bets to be selected by the Browns with choice n ° 2, declared that he hoped to continue to play both the attack and the defense of the NFL.
Ohtani, three times MVP in the Major Baseball League, played both as a launcher and a striker. He won his first two MVPs playing the two sides, then captured his third in his first season with the Dodgers last year, becoming the first full -time fisherman to win a MVP. This came then that Ohtani rehabilitates a second major elbow surgery that prevented him from pitching.
Berry said Browns considered the hunter mainly as a wide receiver in the NFL, but that he was open to him in the moonlight like a defensive back. Berry, however, added that all the options remain open in Cleveland with regard to choice n ° 2.
“We will use the whole stopwatch,” he said.
