How does it feel to be a Pittsburgh Steeler?

It’s been a dream of mine. I’m happy and excited.

 

Have you lined up at fullback, and do you enjoy that?

Yeah, I concentrated at playing h-back at Arkansas State. If that’s what I have to do, I like it actually.

 

Is that what you will most likely play here, halfback?

Yes sir.

 

Did you expect to be drafted, if so did you expect to be drafted around this time?

Yes, the whole time I was thinking this would be the round.

 

David, do you go by David or D.J.?

Both actually.

 

Are you about 270-pounds right now?

About 260.
