What do you think you're in a 7th round, huh?

0:04.8

All right, got it.

0:11.0

Love that dog.

Nike, making another appearance on Draft Day.

Anything that humanizes Bill Belichick, because there is a human being in there somewhere,

0:19.9

you just don't see it very often because it could be used against him. It's that military mindset that he brings
