Vernon Davis Quotations

I figured if I could beat this guy, and he's the 12th overall pick, then I had a good shot. I was ready to turn pro right then and there.

Just from being around them and meeting with them, it seems as if they would take me.

Jeremy's real aggressive. He doesn't stop going. You have to get leverage on him first. If he takes off before you it's hard to get him.

I hear different things. I could be the No. 2 pick, No. 4, No. 6, No. 8. I'm not worried about that.

I feel good about being labeled the new breed of tight end. That's what it is, when you got a guy who can do more than catch the ball, to get extra yardage after catching the ball and make guys miss.

I feel like I'm ready. I'm ready to go out there right now.

They all tell me they?d love to have me. I feel good about being labeled the new breed of tight end.

They all speak highly of me. They all say they would love to have me, but you never know.

Antonio Gates is a good player. He's someone I have watched throughout my college career and I like the way he plays. But there are some things when I look at the guy, he does a little better than myself. And (there are) things I do better than him as far as speed, things like that.

I sit back and watch guys like Heath Miller coming in as a rookie and doing things like he has done, going to the Super Bowl and making plays. That is something to be proud about, a guy who played in the same conference as you. I know I can do it because I have a good work ethic.
