On his reaction to being picked by the Bills:
I am happy. One I get to play left tackle and two Buffalo is one of my favorite teams. I am just happy I get to play football. I know where I am playing at now. It is a big relief.

On why he is excited to play for the Bills:
The coach. I like the coaching staff. I like the offensive line coach (Joe D’Alessandris). I like the way he coaches, so (Buffalo) was definitely a big favorite of mine.

On having to wait until the second round to be drafted:
I wish I could have got off early but I am just happy to be picked right now. It is a big honor.

On his development as a left tackle:
I would just say that I came out to a slower start. And then I got better as the season went on as I got more comfortable out there. I still do not think I have played my best game out there.

On if he was afraid of being drafted by a team who did not view him as a tackle:
I think with my athletic ability it would be hard for a team to pass that up.

On how pleased he is that the Bills view him as a left tackle:
I am extremely pleased and ready to start just focusing on football again. Get off of this process that is finally over. I am excited about it.

On if the Bills told him during meetings that they viewed him as a left tackle:
They thought I could play tackle but I am just going to go in there and try out the vibe. I’ll help out at whatever position they need me to play, honestly.

On the Bills having a need at left tackle:
It is (exciting). That is the whole point. I am excited to go out there and play. I am ready for it.

On if he was at home:
Yeah, I am at home.

On if he felt that he might be drafted earlier:
Yeah, I did actually. But things happen for a reason. I am just happy to be with the Bills.

On if it was a big disappointment he was not drafted earlier:
I would not say that. I am pretty happy with the team I got picked by.

On his reaction when the phone rang and it was the Bills:
Extremely happy. I talked to Chan (Gailey) first. I talked to Buddy (Nix). Very happy. Probably the happiest moment of my life.

On what he brings to the table aside from his size:
Beside my size: versatility, quickness, strength power, everything the whole nine.

On his reaction to being picked by the Bills:
I’m very excited. It’s something I worked for my whole life. I’m just going to enjoy the opportunity I have now with the Buffalo Bills.

On if he expected to be selected in the third round:
I spoke with some people and they suggested that this was the earliest I would go. You expect the worst in this situation, so getting the best that they told me is a pretty good thing. I am pretty excited about it.

On how much contact he had with the Bills prior to the draft:
I had a couple of meetings with them and talked with them a couple of times. It was a destination that I saw myself going to. I am really going to enjoy it.

On if he felt good about his meetings with the Bills:
Yes, I felt really good. The meetings went well, meeting the coaching staff and Coach Gailey.

On if he considers himself a slot receiver or an outside receiver:
Anywhere I can play. It does not really matter to me; anywhere I can get onto the field and contribute to the success of the offense.

On where he lined up at North Carolina State:
Outside or inside. It depended on the defensive match-up for that week.

On his experience returning kicks and punts:
I did both all four years in college. I finished my career as the career all-time leader in ACC for kickoff return yards. This past year I led the ACC in punt return yards. I have had success on both. There were years I was better here and there.

On having returned two punts and two kickoffs for touchdowns throughout his collegiate career:
Yeah. I wish I had more though.

On if he will be able to stretch the field at the NFL level:
My speed has translated to the track and I use that to run and excel in there. On the field, I can definitely stretch the field and make the defense have to play the full field instead of the short field.
