Shorthand in effect

Norm: Injury: Condition of the shoulder

AD: 90% healed. Don't know how info leaked out maybe by a team hoping he'll fall. Took xrays, cat scans at combine and again in March and everything was fine.

Norm: Did you reinjury your shoulder in the Fiesta Bowl?

AD: Yes, reinjured but it hadn't healed fully at that time.

Norm: Was it a mistake to play in the Fiesta Bowl?

AD: No, doctors say that everything is going to be fine and I won't miss any time.

Norm: There were rumors that Cleveland flunked you on the physical, is this true?

AD: No, totally false. Don't know where that came from.

Norm: Do you like the experience of being pulled, poked, examed, etc...?

AD: It's part of the process and it's worth it.

Norm: Did you participate off season programs?

AD: Yes, the one in Arizona..

(Fluff, flufff, kiss, kiss)

Norm: I'm told that you guys pay 57,000.00 for two months.

AD: (laughter) Yeah, it's worth it.

Didn't get the rest, employee walked in, having personal issues

AD was on a cell phone some of it was very choppy, but I hope this helps someone.

Tell us bout the condition of the shoulder?The information on my shoulder is positive. Its 90% healed. I don’t know where this leaked out from. Probably from a team that hopes that I slide. I got CT scans at the Combine. I came back in March and got it rechecked, and it was nothing but positive from the results. Team doctors were at the site and there was nothing but good news from it. Did you reinjure it at the Fiesta Bowl?Yes, sir. I didn’t re-break it. I just reinjured it because it wasn’t fully healed.Was it a mistake to try to come back and play?No, because nothing major happened to it. If I didn’t play people would probably say something else. I reinjured it, but teams have done advanced CT and bone scans on it, and they aren’t concerned. I’m not going to need surgery. I’ll be ready to play. Did Cleveland flunk you on your physical?No. That is totally false. I came back after the Combine to have it rechecked, and everything turned out good.Do you like this draft experience or is getting old?Its just part of the process. Its been a long process. And I had the shoulder issue on my plate going into it, so I’ve spent hours and hours waiting in hospitals and getting my shoulder pulled on, but it will be all worth it after tomorrow.Did you go to any performance camp to workout for the draft?Yeah, I went to Arizona. It worked out good.I heard they taylor make your nutrition and workouts for you.Yeah, they had a good group of guys down there.It doesn’t come cheap does it? I heard it costs $15k for just a month of work. Its worth it. Its just part of the draft experience. I enjoyed being around all these great players. I enjoyed competing against Bradie Quinn, Jarmarcus Russell. Marshawn Lynch. Do they let you eat Potato Chips?They tell you what you should eat, and you have your meals planned out. You’re going to be a first round draft pick. You’ve accomplished so much in college, but this hasn’t been an easy life for you has it?No, not at all. But when you’re in the spotlight you take whatever goes along with it. I haven’t had an easy life, but God has blessed me. I just take the good with the bad. I want our listeners to know some of the things that you’ve been through. How much is it still a nightmare for you remembering the day your brother was hit and killed by a drunk driver?I think about it all the time, and I saw it happen right in front of my face. I was 7 years old when it happened. It was devastating. But I’m a stronger man from it. Its been an inspiration that makes me so driven to be where I am. How difficult was it to have a father in prison?It was difficult, I was at a young age. My dad was also there for me in my life. He put first put the ball in my hands. But growing up with just my mom, it was just me and her. My dad may have not been there physically, but he was with me spiritually. And even recently, one the eve of the Combine, your half brother was shot and killed in Houston.Yeah, I found out the night before I was supposed to work out. I was up until 2 or 2:30 am because I couldn’t sleep. I just prayed for God to give me strength. It all depends on how you look at things, because things in life will test your faith. Its gonna hurt, but what are you going to take away from it? Are you going to use it as a positive or a negative. I use it to motivate me. It makes me want to go get it even more. People say this player had a rough day because he fumbled the ball or he didn’t run well. Your life puts things like that in perspective doesn’t it?Yeah, I don’t let small things bother me. I’ve been through a lot and I can put things in perspective. Thank you Adrian. I’ll see you tomorrow and enjoy your day tomorrow.I will, and How About Them Cowboys? Haha!! You think you’ll be there at #22?I don’t know. You never know what will happen in the draft. ************We’re the only local station in America that covers the NFL Draft from start to finish. Adrian Peterson may be falling, I joked about #22 but that isn’t going to happen. Reports of injuries happen like this all the time. Adrian suggests that teams put out rumors like this so they can take him later. That’s very possible. I hear that Lawrence Timmons and Anthony Spencer appear to be moving up. The WR’s may be slipping just a little bit. The Cowboys could have several WR’s. I have a list of people who have character flags. Marcus Thomas, Tank Tyler, Eric Wright. There is some question as to whether Marshawn Lynch will pay for a charge that was never proven. Rufus Alexander. Terrell Brown. Brandon Meriweather. Jarvis Moss. Jay Moore. Victor DeGrate. There are things out there about these players that may make them drop a few slots or a few rounds. Marcus Thomas has been taken totally off the board of several teams.
