What do you tell your son if he was a NFL prospect?

work on his kicking game. Kickers have it the best! Serious injuries are rare and you kick a ball.

Seriously though, it would be interesting to see if we all turned back the clock and focused only on football kicking coming up, if some of us (or all of us) would be in the NFL.

I played so many sports with varying levels of commitment and you can't be like that.

but staying with the thread, I would assume a son of mine would be QB, RB or WR and I'd to go for whatever he wants, but to always make sure he has a solid back-up plan.

Go pro defiantly. Too many risks of staying in college. Unless he is a brain surgeon then the NFL is like a fast food job.

Depends when you get drafted and how well you do. Brain Surgeons work year round and have a lot more pressure and make about what your below to average NFL players makes

Myron Rolle had 1st round talent, no?

Much better job security being a doctor. Arguably, worse lifestyle. I know many (good ones) and they have no lives outside of work. Very wealthy but it's like it's all for nothing.

I was being sarcastic. I would take NFL over doctor anyday. Just the lifestyle of a doctor in my eyes sucks. Yeah they make a ton of money but it isnt worth it to me.
