Um, it’s a good thing to keep your strength and speed and stay around the

  14. Love Yahya,seems like he's got morals and values also intelligent an disciplined. I cant say for sure but just seems like he's a good person and we all know he's a dog on the field love we got this pick i feel like we stole him so late I feel like he would've went 1st or 2nd round if he played at Ohio state or Texas,Norte Dame, MIchigan,etc,etc love it
