"I like this guy [Russell] at LSU," he said. "I think he's got rare talent throwing the football. His size, his mobility and his quick arm remind me of Ben Roethlisberger. The other guy [Brady] is a Type A guy, he's a winner. He's the hardest-working guy maybe in this draft. He does sit-ups, I think, at halftime. The guy's working around the clock. He's got a burning desire to be the best." John Gruden (Tampa Tribune)
