Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles is one of the top prospects in the upcoming NFL draft. The 2014 Fiesta Bowl MVP is pegged to go anywhere from No. 1 overall to late in the first round, meaning his combine performance and interviews will go a long way in determining his draft fate. So what are teams asking Bortles when they get him in a closed room? Which question do you ask when making a long-term investment in an athlete? His girlfriend, of course.
Bortles is dating a fellow UCF student named Lindsey Duke, who is popular on the Internet thanks to a Twitter and Instagram feed filled with bikini pictures and party selfies. This has caught the notice of teams, Bortles told Dan Patrick this week. “They knew [about Lindsey] going into the meeting and I think that was kind of their angle,” he said.
On the types of questions getting asked: “Some [are] awkward — if we come to town, will she be there for dinner, stuff like that.”
Sounds like that could be an invitation or a question.
