How Paddy Fisher’s mentality has shaped his approach to the NFL Draft

Paddy Fisher’s mindset entering his rookie season in the NFL is the same as it was entering his freshman season at Northwestern.

“Just work, work, work. When you’re a freshman, and in this case a rookie, you are seen and not heard,” Fisher said. “You study, you are the first one there and you are the last one to leave. You just work, study and see where it goes.”

If Fisher’s rookie season in the NFL is anything reminiscent of his redshirt freshman season at Northwestern, it will have been a resounding success.

Fisher remembers the hype around him after his first two years in Evanston.
