Former OSU quarterback Brandon Weeden sat down with former NFL head coach and current analyst Jon Gruden recently, an interview that ESPN aired Wednesday.

With the NFL draft quickly approaching, the no-nonsense Gruden does his best to get inside the heads of the most highly touted quarterbacks in the draft in a segment called "Gruden Camp."

Gruden didn't pull any punches, asking Weeden about his time in baseball's minor leagues, the concern over his age and OSU's loss to Iowa State.

Weeden didn't back down, answering confidently with each question.

"I'm a winner, man," Weeden said. "I can win some football games."

The first round of the 2012 NFL draft is scheduled for April 26.

Weeden is expected to be drafted in the first three rounds.

Former teammate Justin Blackmon is projected to be one of Thursday's first picks.
