Amon-Ra St. Brown rattles off all 16 WRs drafted ahead of him
One of the definite highlights of the second episode of Hard Knocks was a look at just how driven and focused Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown truly is. His drive was on full display in Tuesday night’s show.
St. Brown fell to the 112th pick in the 2021 NFL draft, and Lions fans everywhere are grateful for the oversight by all the other teams. The “Sun God” proved to be one of the most prolific wide receivers–not just rookies–over the final eight games of last season, and he’s looking even better throughout training camp.
As for Amon-Ra? Yeah, he’s not so grateful about how the draft itself played out. He wears it like a boulder on his broad shoulders, and Hard Knocks captured it expertly.
After acknowledging his draft experience was “sh****”, St. Brown rattled off the name of all 16 wide receivers drafted ahead of him and the teams that drafted them, too.

That is some powerful motivation for St. Brown.
