Jo-Lonn: The physicality of it…I like running around and being able to read and react instead of playing a more structured style of football.
DraftSeason: What is the strongest part of your game, and what are some areas where you need the most improvement?

DraftSeason: What is more rewarding for you, sacking the quarterback or intercepting a pass?

DraftSeason: Finally, you went up against Matt Ryan every day in practice, what makes him so good, and in your opinion is he worthy of a top 5 pick in the draft?
Jo-Lonn: He’s definitely a top 5 pick in the Draft. He doesn’t want to lose. He’s one of the most competitive people I’ve ever met. He never breaks down regardless of the way the game’s going or whether he just threw a pick the prior possession.
