Eric Ebron wants to win ROY and go to Pro Bowl as a rookie
Listen you can never have too high of goals, but Eric Ebron is pushing it. The rookie from UNC is amped up and ready to attack his rookie year. The tenth pick in the NFL draft has listed his goals on the Lions website and they are simple, win Rookie of the Year and go to a Pro Bowl as a rookie.
“My goals are set high,” Ebron said Sunday at Michigan International Speedway, where he’s the grand marshal for the Quicken Loans 400. “I’ve never set goals that were too low or too easy to achieve. I’m going to try to go for rookie of the year. If it happens, it happens. I believe I can do it.”
“Matt (Stafford) believes I can do it, coaches believe I can do it,” Ebron said. “My coach right now, he’s saying, ‘Our goal right now is to make it to the Pro Bowl our rookie year.’ I was like, ‘Well, your goal is my goal, so we’re going to try to do it as fast and as quickly and make it be known as fast as we can.”
You cannot knock a guy for knowing what he wants, I hope he reaches them.
