'Hey Mama…we’re going to Cincinnati.' Bengals NFL Draft pick phone calls are everything

For all the hype and hope that comes from any NFL Draft, watching newly drafted young men celebrate with their friends and family tells us everything we need to know about the humans beneath the helmets.

After their calls with Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor, we learned first-round draft pick Daxton Hill is a soft-spoken man full of gratitude, while second-round pick Cam Taylor-Britt was speechless and overcome while surrounded by family and friends. Zachary Carter, the third-round pick, is a man of few words but they hit the right way, "Let's go."

Fourth-round pick Cordell Volson endeared himself to Cincinnati fans with an understated draft party in a North Dakota shop befitting a new "glass-eater." And, in a room full of people, sixth-round Tycen Anderson wanted to give the news to one person above all else – his mom. We're still digging around for seventh-round pick Jeffrey Gunter's big moment.

Be prepared to get emotional as you watch them on repeat.
