On Thursday’s PFT Live, West Virginia receiver Tavon Austin -- almost assuredly to hear his name called in Round One of tonight’s draft -- shared an interesting take on for whom he would like to play and how he would like to be deployed when enters the NFL.

Austin told PFT’s Mike Florio that he would like to play for a team with a “spread offense,” one that has “a plan for me who can use me.”

Austin also said he preferred a “team where there’s already wide receivers there so I’m not really the main target and teams can double down on me.”

For more of Austin’s thoughts as Round One nears, including his list of the three teams that “stood out” for interest shown in him in the predraft process, check out today’s interview on PFT Live.
