BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) – Typically for 5 Questions, our Buffalo Kickoff LIVE crew asks a player a few questions. This week — we turned it over to one of the funniest, most likable guys in the locker room — offensive lineman Dion Dawkins.
Dion Dawkins – Are we rolling? Alright, we’re rolling. So listen, around the locker room we have a lot of guys, lockers, but right here we have the legendary T2 — Tyrod Taylor. So T, you’re one of the fly guys. You always give me tips about the sneakers. What’s your go to shoe and why?
Tyrod Taylor: “Growing up I was an Air Force One kind of guy. After that, a Jordan, something retro like when he was with the Bulls.”
DD: So, elite shoes.

DD: What up (Seantrel). Just curious, how you feeling today?
Seantrel Henderson: “You see I’m playing a game, right?”
DD: Yeah.
SH: Ok.”

DD: We have a little trivia thing going on right now. I’m just curious to know if you have a favorite rookie from this year’s class? There’s a couple of rookies next to you — Dion Dawkins — I think Connor McDermott is over there. Just curious, who is your favorite rookie?
Ryan Davis: “That’s going to be tough. THis rookie class there’s a lot of guys in there…I wouldn’t even go to work with them. I’m just kidding! You’re my guy!”
DD: Oh ok!

DD: I just want to know P, who is your favorite rookie in the locker room?
Preston Brown: “Matt Milano.”
DD: Because of what?
PB: “He’s amazing. He beats you at practice, you can’t block him, he gets picks every day so Matt is the man.”
DD: Do you have a favorite big guy?
PB: “Probably, Seantrel. He’s probably one of the tallest so he’s my favorite.”
DD: What about rookie?
PB: “Is Connor a rookie?”
DD: Connor might be a rookie.
PB: “You’re alright. You gave me that sack in college so…”
DD: Interview over fellas, thank you very much.
