Bengals RB coach Kyle Caskey discusses NFL Draft process
Key quotes from Kyle Caskey interview
"This is the fifth NFL Draft I've been involved in. Everyone thinks we know who we are going to draft, but we don't."
"There is no off-season for coaches in the NFL between the Senior Bowl, private workouts and pro days."
"With the draft being moved back, we have a little more time to think about each individual guy."
"We do things a little differently. We don't have a whole lot of scouts. I'm our running backs scout."
"We go to the Senior Bowl to find out who we want to see more of. At pro day, we try to find out about the kid himself."
"Tape tells you everything you need to know about the player. 75% of our decision comes from that."
"Before draft day, we put together a board of our top 200 based on talent and a board of our top 100 players we need."
"Once it's about two picks away from our pick, we start deciding the specific guy we want."
"Everyone who makes decisions is in the same room in Cincinnati. Our guys in NY are a couple of our athletic trainers."
"Being an Aggie and watching Manziel, he's made A&M football really exciting. Someone is getting a good player in him."
