We at PFT continue to be fans of Babatunde Aiyegbusi, the 6-foot-9, 351-pound offensive tackle signed by the Vikings last month.

Granted, we don’t know much about Aiyegbusi, whose football career consists of playing for the Wroclaw Giants of the Polish American Football League. But we like Aiyegbusi’s spirit.

Tom Pelissero of USA Today caught up with Aiyegbusi and found that he’s not satisfied with just signing an NFL contract. Instead, Aiyegbusi is focused on taking on the best defensive lineman in the NFL, and winning. Aiyegbusi told Vikings director of pro scouting Ryan Monnens that he’s not celebrating just being in the NFL. He’ll save his celebration for when he kicks Texans defensive end J.J. Watt’s butt on the field.

“What surprised Ryan – I wasn’t jumping around, like big, happy of signing it,” Aiyegbusi said. “He was like, ‘Are you not happy?’ I said, ‘I will be happy when I put J.J. Watt to the ground.'”

That’s unlikely, and not just because the Vikings don’t play the Texans this year. If Aiyegbusi sticks with the Vikings at all, it’s more likely to be on the practice squad than the 53-player roster. But this is a young man who has the self-confidence to match his size. That’s hard not to like.
