Randy Gregory: 'I'm worthy of first pick in 2015 Draft'

Nebraska Cornhuskers defensive end Randy Gregory feels that he is worth selecting with the first overall pick in the 2015 Draft after an impressive college career.

Nebraska Cornhuskers defensive end Randy Gregory has expressed his belief that he is "worthy" of being selected with the first overall pick in the 2015 Draft.

The 22-year-old has been highly touted as one of the best prospects available in the upcoming Draft after an impressive college career for the Cornhuskers, as he notched 115 tackles and 16.5 sacks in his two-year spell with the team.

"I think I'm worthy of the number one pick," Gregory told USA Today. "I would hope anybody in the Draft would want to be the number one pick. I know how I am as a player. I know my potential. I know what I can do. I know what I bring to a team. And I understand that this position is a premium.

"Everyone wants someone that can get to the quarterback. Everyone wants a quarterback. Everyone wants a left tackle that can block that guy that wants to get to the quarterback.

"I understand the game and where it's headed, and I understand that there's a big need, a big demand. I definitely think I'm worthy."

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers hold the number one pick in the 2015 Draft, which begins on April 30.
