INDIANAPOLIS — One of the best prospects in this year's NFL draft said Wednesday he models his game after one former Detroit Lions wide receiver and considers another current Lions pass catcher "a big brother."
USC's Drake London said he has tried to emulate Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson in his rise to stardom and soon will be trying to one-up his ex-roommate Amon-Ra St. Brown on the field.
London and St. Brown played two seasons together with the Trojans. St. Brown led the Lions with 90 catches for 912 yards as a rookie, while London is expected to be one of the first receivers taken in this year's draft.
