I can totally see it if they player doesn't seem to know much about scheme or play calls and they get the idea that he's still simply relying on his athleticism.
I’m going to be an optimist, and assume that the team was, say, the Texans, and Will had the common sense to sandbag the interview on purpose.

Dude, come on. You cannot write something eye catching like that about a poor interview from a guy who could potentially break the current 1st round drought and then when asked be like "well, I don't want to share the details". In that case don't write anything at all.

Seriously, these "I've got a secret" posts are so annoying.
If you can’t read between the lines then that’s on you

Why would someone be afraid to share details? He's no longer affiliated with the university. Not likely that NFL scouts are divulging information directly with you anyways and even less likely that you are going to harbor consequences for sharing the alleged information.
Because I don’t need to share details that could skew how fans, especially little kids, view Will. Y’all are tryna shoot the messenger. I hope I’m wrong and we end our first round drought

So then don't even bring it up in the first place. And nobody's trying to shoot the messenger...because there is no message, other than you doing the 'ole "I've got a secret! I've got a secret!" song and dance routine. Honestly, the message you're giving out IMO is that you are really indulging your own sense of self-importance.

A lot of times, a lot of our fan base has unrealistic expectations. Will is no doubt first round talent, and teams know that, but his interview with the chiefs was one of the worst they had, so let’s hope his other interviews went better, or else he may not go in the first

Personal checks like when Dorothy Ann is holding up the line at Hy-Vee while she writes her check is what needs to be done away with. I understand some boomers and elderly folk grew up a certain way, and it's hard to change.
I’ve got news for you. Some day the young whippersnappers are going to be waving the chip in their hands over a scanner, and glaring at “old people” who fumble around with a debit card….
