I'm going to focus on myself and continue to get myself better because I have plenty of things I need to work on.
If you're on a bus and going down a snowy mountain like in Tahoe, and the bus loses its brakes, where do you want to be sitting? Immediately, you all think, 'In the back.' But in the front would be the correct answer. As a quarterback, you want to take control of it.
I learned you're going to have to start from the ground up, and honestly, it starts with hard work, hard work in the offseason, and no shortcuts really.
I wouldn't be the first quarterback from California to go to cold weather. I think Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers are doing pretty well and been able to do it.
I hold myself to a high standard on and off the field.
I think I can bring tremendous leadership.
I've been a good player my whole life and expect to continue to work hard and continue to do everything that I have done and try not to take any steps back. Try to stay the course and be the best player and the best teammate and hopefully the best leader I can be, and play as well as I can.
I'm not going to worry about any outside pressure or distractions or any of the things that comes with being the #1 pick. I know there is responsibility that comes with it, but I'm ready to get after it.
