00:00 >> So Darius, have you met with the Las Vegas Raiders?
00:07 Do you plan to and if you were, what would it mean to get to play on a defensive
00:11 line with guys like Max Crosby, Malcolm Coons and
00:13 also for a former coach like Antonio Pearson?
00:16 >> Yes, I haven't met with the Raiders here yet, but
00:19 Rob Leonard was my D line coach at the senior bowl and I learned so much from him.
00:23 Teaching me about keeping my hands inside, carrying my hands like a bowl of soup.
00:27 Max Crosby is the best defensive lineman in the league right now.
00:31 I'm constantly watching his tape.
00:33 He really sets the standard for
00:34 defensive line play for somebody I wanna play like.
00:36 >> What about Max Crosby is it that you always watch and
00:39 try to model your game after?
00:40 >> Yeah, just the bowler, he doesn't stop.
00:42 Every clip you watch, he's going as fast as he possibly can.
00:45 He's always turning his shoulders, upper body rotation, always using his lift.
00:49 He just plays the game very well.
00:50 >> Darius, what do you feel like separates you from the rest of the defense?
00:55 >> Yeah, I would say I'm the best.
00:57 I play every position I can play from a zero to a nine.
00:59 I'm gonna play physical, I'm gonna run, I'm gonna hit somebody.
01:02 And I can do everything and I just want an opportunity to just put my cleats in
01:06 the ground and play as fast as I can.
01:07 >> Darius, have you had a chance to play Buckethead yourself?
01:10 >> No, I haven't, but I've met with him at the senior bowl.
01:13 >> Can you tell me a little bit about your positional use,
01:16 your position to sort of switch to defensive end this past year?
01:20 >> Yes, so going into my fifth year, when I knew I was coming back,
01:24 I was thinking about leaving school last year.
01:26 I didn't think I was ready yet.
01:28 So when I came back, I decided I wanted to play both positions,
01:30 show my versatility to the NFL, give me an opportunity.
01:34 And my coach, Coach Drake, Coach Peoples, we worked out a great plan.
01:37 And Coach Peoples changed my career, taught me so many different things, but.
