NFL Draft Language Translations

[neonmoon44]

Post common terms and what they mean

Good locker room guy = not a gang member

[Message Board User]

articulate = carlton

[TULAUS]

Interesting pick = dumbass pick, GM will be fired at end of next season

[Dwight Schrute]

high motor, coach on the field, great work ethic, and gym rat = unathletic white player. As soon as I saw Tank Carder get picked, I said watch them call him a coach on the field. 10 seconds later Mayock calls him a coach on the field type guy.

[Gut Wagon]

tweener = not good enough at any position to have been drafted...so we're saying we picked him up as a vital cog for our special teams

[MikeGundy'sRant]

"A project"=a player who might make a Canadian Football League roster

[Dwight Schrute]

A knockout special teams player = a guy who can run fast in a straight line but can't do $#@! else.

[SDG]

Can do a little bit of everything = Not very good at any one thing

[TornACL]

High motor is the most $#@!ing annoying new term ever. It's worse than the NBA's "wingspan".

So-called experts start using "high motor" as a crutch from the 3rd round on because they don't know $#@!all about the actual player.

[DougO]

And with their fourth round pick, The Cowboys... = massive reach coming your way

[Dwight Schrute]

And with their fourth round pick, The Cowboys... = massive reach coming your way

Better than a punter in the 3rd round.

[Tx2DaBone]

Overachieved- I was wrong about this guy, but I'm not going to admit it.

[DougO]

Oakland Raiders = "Well see you on day three of the draft."

[Mikeinthebox]

Nifty = white

[hamttx]

Team player = If anyone needs some reefer look him up.

Coach on the field...Nah.. better leave that alone.
