Chapter 784 Interception

In fact, Mike has already entered the NFL league, but he still can't believe it and doesn't dare to relax before he actually gets the contract.

Since signing up for the draft, Mike has been able to participate in the FNL selection camp and show off his talents in front of many teams. However, according to the agreement with the former Oakland Raiders and now the Las Vegas Raiders, Mike will not play with anyone. His current level is shown in front of him.

In fact, it was a secret operation. The Raiders trained Mike during this period, and Mike guaranteed to join the Raiders.

Since there was an intermediary involved in this matter, the Raiders were not worried that Mike would change his mind and go to some selection camp midway to show off in front of other teams. But the problem is that Mike's performance is getting better and better. Absolutely After being drafted in the first round of the lottery, the Raiders were a little concerned.

What are they worried about? Worrying about Mike having private contact with other teams, worrying about Mike being unwilling to be selected in the third or fourth round. In short, when Mike really showed great strength, the Raiders began to value him and worry about him.

That's why the highlight comes.

This year's draft is held online. If you just want to accompany Mike through this important moment in his life and be a witness for Mike to realize his dream, then you only need to stay in Los Angeles and there is no need to come to Las Vegas.

But the Raiders were worried about something going wrong with Mike, and he was a little too impatient in training, so Gao Guang was invited.

Gao Guang is also happy to come and see his old brother and reassure Mike.

Since this year's draft is held online, there will naturally be no draft scene. This is good, as it saves Mike the embarrassment of being invited.

So Mike followed Highlights to Los Angeles.

Originally I wanted to have a surprise, but now there is no surprise, only a grand party.

The draft lasted for three days, and the highlight was the second day of the draft, because the first round of the draft was held on the first day, and the second and third rounds were held on the second day. The Raiders had informed Mike very clearly, He will be drafted in the third round.

The first round can be used to strengthen the team. Since Mike has already been selected and his team is not optimistic about Mike at all, it is impossible for Mike to be selected, so the precious first-round pick will be given to others.

A second-round pick could have been Mike, but the Raiders traded their second-round pick, so they were left with a third-round pick.

So Mike will be taken in the third round.

If nothing else, today is just a formality, but this formality is still extremely important. Regardless of the pick, if you can enter the NFL, you will realize Mike's life ideal.

Mike looked relaxed, chatting around with a bottle of beer

, the case said that in Gao Guang’s home, there were plenty of famous and good wines, but Mike only took a bottle of beer and didn’t take a sip after opening it. He just looked good while chatting with others.

Everyone is very happy. We are brothers and comrades fighting side by side. Regardless of whether we watch the game or not, today is a big day. "Mike!"

John shouted loudly from his wheelchair. He raised the wine bottle to Mike and said happily: "It's begun, it's begun!" The draft began. John was particularly excited. He raised his wine glass vigorously from his wheelchair. He shouted to Mike: "Here's to your dream!"

Mike's face twitched, and then he finally put the beer bottle to his mouth and took a sip.

John was extremely excited and said: "When Mad Dog and I saw you snatching the bag and running away on the street, I knew you could do it."

Gao Guang coughed twice and said, "What are you talking about? You drank too much so early." John smiled sheepishly and said, "Sorry, sorry."

Mike waved his hand and said: "What are you talking about? Why apologize? If it hadn't been for that zero-dollar purchase that year, I wouldn't have met you."

Mike was also very talkative, but Gao Guang said with a stern face: "Okay, don't talk about it anymore. Never mention this matter in the future. Never mention it to anyone. Mike, some things can be tolerated in the United States. Create a prodigal son." There’s no problem with the character you look back on. The story of working your way from the bottom to the NFL is also very inspiring. However, there are some parts of your experience that absolutely cannot be discovered. You will be a public figure and a star in the future, so you have to be more careful. ”

Mike looked at Walton.

Mr. and Mrs. Wharton were also invited to the party. They were neighbors with Gao Guang, but now Wharton said with a smile on his face: "Yes, be careful. Although your criminal record is gone, being mentioned will eventually be detrimental to you." ”

John knew he had made a mistake. He smiled bitterly and suddenly said, "Look at my tracked wheelchair. It's so exciting."

Gao Guang thought it was a good thing, so he naturally recommended it to John. John can use prosthetics, but he can also use a bulletproof wheelchair. Who cares about bulletproof wheelchairs now, everyone is waiting for the moment Mike is selected.

Anyway, you will be selected in the third round, and the entire second round will last for two hours, which means it is still early, and everyone still has to wait.

There are no visitors from the Raiders today, but the Raiders have sent caps and jerseys. Although not many people pay attention to the second and third rounds, there is still a sense of ceremony.

Although Mike's own strength is the main reason for sending Mike to the NFL, this matter is still Gao Guang's proud work.

The highlight is Mike's talent. Without him, no matter how strong Mike is, he will never be able to enter the NFL.

So Gao Guang was really happy. Although the doctor asked him not to drink after the fracture, he raised his glass again and said loudly: "Cheers to Mike and ideals!"

It was just a carnival of drinking, nothing else.

Gao Guang's toast was echoed by everyone, and everyone raised their glasses, but Mike shouted: "Cheers to the boss, drink!" Mike took a small bottle of beer and drank it headlong, looking very generous.

Lola also held a glass of wine, sitting on the sofa, watching the draft on the big TV in the living room.

It seemed a little incompatible with the overall environment. People who came from the wilderness were a little socially anxious, and Lola was no exception. However, she didn't want to disturb others, and others would not disturb her. It was good for everyone to enjoy themselves.

Just as Mike seemed to be drinking generously, Lola took a half glass of liquor and drank it all. Then when Mike continued to hold the bottle, Lola, who had been watching TV, suddenly widened her eyes.

"New York Giants, 37th pick, selected free agent Mike Ball."

The host was a little incredible when he read out the name, so he rarely paused slightly.

No one noticed what was said on TV, but Lola heard it, so she said in a puzzled manner: "Oh, hi, interrupt me, is that you, Mike Ball?"

Mike didn't hear it, and Lola was helpless. She could only stand up and shouted: "Hi!"

The shout attracted everyone's attention. Lola asked again: "Is Mike's full name Mike Ball?" Gao Guang said puzzledly: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Lola pointed to the TV and said seriously: "He was selected, the 37th pick in the second round, the New York Giants." "Impossible, this is impossible!"

Gao Guang was stunned for a moment, and Mike looked at the TV with a stunned face, and then said: "I, I, I was intercepted?"

Something happened, and it was a big thing. Mike didn't wait until the third round to be selected. He was intercepted at the beginning of the second round.

But the problem is that Gao Guang had a secret deal with the Raiders. He had a middleman, the middleman was the Victoria Club, and the introducer was Sarah.

If Mike joined another team, it would be hard to say.

Gao Guang's technician was stunned and said, "You tried out for the New York Giants?"

>

Mike was even more confused than Gao Guang. He said blankly, "No! I have never been in contact with the New York Giants. I, I have never participated in any selection camps. They don't know me. Why did they choose me?"

Gao Guang absolutely believed in Mike. If this was not Mike's doing, then the Raiders leaked the information themselves. There was no other possibility.

At this moment, Mike's cell phone suddenly rang.

The noisy party suddenly quieted down, because being selected in advance, although it can be said to be a good thing, but for Mike and Gao Guang, this is really not a good thing.

The phone rang, the Raiders called, and it called Mike. Mike answered the phone and trembled, "Coach" "Mike! What's going on!"

"I don't know, I don't know!"

Mike certainly tried his best to defend himself. He said anxiously, "I have never had any contact with the New York Giants. I have never left the team. You should know that. I have never thought about joining other teams."

The Raiders were all crazy from the manager to the head coach. The talent they valued and cultivated was intercepted, and they could have used the first round pick to directly take Mike.

It is obvious that if the New York Giants were not bored and willing to waste a second round pick, they would have received intelligence.

Mike has indeed been in the team, so the coach trembled and said, "Someone leaked it, damn it, someone leaked that Mike can now be considered an NFL player, as long as he reports to New York.

But Mike really wants to join the Raiders, so he said anxiously, "What should I do? I don't want to go to New York. Why was I selected by New York? They haven't even seen me. What should I do? Coach, what should I do?"

"Trade! What has happened cannot be changed. We will apply for a trade immediately. As long as you really want to come to the Raiders, we will definitely bring you here. We will immediately study the trade plan and trade you from the New York Giants. "

The coach's phone was taken away by the manager, and Mike's phone was in Gao Guang's hands.

The Raiders decided to use a trade to get Mike back, but the Raiders would have to pay a price. After dealing with garbage organizations like Edelweiss for a long time, Gao Guang felt that things might not be that simple when it came to the word intelligence.

If the Raiders leaked the information themselves, there would be nothing to say.

The key is the location. The Victoria Club is in New York, and the Giants are also in New York. It is this connection that makes Gao Guang feel that the problem lies with the Victoria Club. If it is really the Victoria Club that leaked the information, then the price the Raiders might pay would be a bit too high, and they might not be able to afford it.
