The New York Giants had all their recruits present for the Minicamp recruit this year.
And although Minicamp is not an excellent showcase for line editors, it was always our first opportunity to see players like the choice of third round Darius Alexander and the third choice in the Abdul Carter general classification on the field. They may not have participated in exercises 7 against 7, but they got to work in individual exercises.
Alexander, and the rest of the giants’ recruits, also had a treat at the start of the Minicamp recruit when they learned that one of the best to do so was present. The legend of the Giants Michael Strahan showed up to watch the first day of the Minicamp recruit and spoke to the new giants.
“It was an excellent message that just told us to come here, work hard and compete with each other and root ourselves while we are there,” said Alexander to the assembly press after training. “So it was a good speech. Just tell us about the tradition of the organization where we were able to hold the norm here.
“It’s really good to see him here and preach to what he learned when he was younger. So, it was really a good day for us, and it was good to have it here too. ”
Working hard and competition is nothing new for Alexander. He has already come with the intention of going to work.
“I would say for me that the main objective for me is to come here as a young man, to work, to learn my teammates, to learn my defense and to learn my coaches,” he said. “So, for me, he is able to come here and work, it’s easy for me.”
Alexander added after four years to Toledo, he already understands that the key to his success lies in the purchase of the coaching he will get.
“I just trust my coaches and the veterans who believe in it, taking training as they help me,” he said. “So the next thing after that would just be an effort, just running out quickly towards the ball everywhere. So, I would say it is the key to success.
“For me, so I had four coaches in different from the university, so for me, it was just able to buy what my coaches told me, whatever I learned before, do not put it at the table with them, learn their exercise, learn their work ethics, how they wanted me to work, I continue my things and then I could go back and add these little things that I had in my game. They had for you.
And in this case, Alexander landed in a situation with one of the best trainers of the NFL defensive line. Andre Patterson is known as one of the best NFL teachers and has an incredible record for coaching the technique of young line players.
Alexander proposed a complimentary report of his first report on his first meeting with coach Patterson, saying: “The first impression is wonderful, cool, relaxed, relaxation coach, but once he was excited, he and he there. But it’s good to do it.. “”
Towards the end of his time with the media, Alexander was invited to the most expected to be in New York. The response of the Recruit defensive tackle could be a little in contradiction with the impressions deleted by its 6 -feet 4 inch and 305 pounds frame: Fashion Week.
“For me,” he said, “I would probably say Fashion Week, you feel me? I’m starting to put myself a lot in fashion, so it’s probably something I’m looking for big. Then apart from that, I just went out with my teammates and participate every day.”
Alexander is not the only fashion Maven along the defensive front of the Giants. Star Nose Tackle Dexter Lawrence spoke of starting a clothing line, and if he does, Alexander wants an original sexy Doxy.
“Hey, if he makes one, I will have to wear some of his clothes there. So hey, tell Dex, come with it.”
