“We will always make sure player health and safety is our No. 1 priority in the NFL.”

I spent a lot of time in the school psychologist's office. I didn't apply myself. My mother thought I had learning disabilities.
To me, what I love about the draft is first, you see the young men who are realizing their dreams that they've worked so hard for. That's a pretty cool thing. You saw the emotion from some of these guys the other day. And then, the second thing is this total sense of hope and optimism. And, I think that's great for everybody.
The way you continue to be a successful business is you don't wait for the car to go off the cliff. You have to manage yourself. And make sure you do it in the right way so you are not making decisions in crisis.
It's not just the NFL. Every other league has a draft. It has been fundamental to the success of professional sports.
