I think this is a big draft for Florida State.

I felt like it was the best decision for me. Still, to this day, my mind hasn't changed.

I consider it more of a challenge than a risk. My knee is getting better. I will be ready for the NFL Combine [in March] and team workouts. The people at FSU have been great to me.

I'm not worried about [just starting one game]. My family needs my help, and I'm doing what is right for me.

I want to be able to help my family out. I've talked to my family and the coaches and I feel like this is the best decision.

My knee feels great and I have been working extremely hard to get myself ready to play again. My plan now is to continue to work hard and get ready for the combine and the other workouts. I feel like I am ready to play at the next level.
