ON BEING DRAFTED IN THE NFL:
“I have been waiting on this all my life.  When Coach Martz got on the telephone I got chills up my spine.  It’s an incredible feeling.”

ON DRAFT EXPECTATIONS:
“I thought I was going to go a little higher, but it is all about the opportunity.  I will just make my way from where I got selected, and the Rams got a good ball player.”

ON ACOUTS BEING DOWN ON HIM FOR BEING 6’2:
“Maybe you can say that, but like I tell them, they should measure me in my work boots.”

ON BEING PHYSICAL ON GAMEDAY:
“I love to compete.  It’s a chance to be physically dominant with another person and not get in
trouble for it.”

ON PLAYING GUARD AND TACKLE:
“Where ever they want me to be, that is where I am going to be.”
