"We were acting like he was just taking me on a regular tour around the hospital," Curry said. "Toward the end we ended up outside tossing each other a football and I just started talking about the draft.

"He said he had seen it and I was telling him that I had been invited and if he would join me in this experience. So I said, 'So come to New York with me and get drafted into the NFL."'

Curry is a big ball of talent who also has his head on straight....not to many of his type in the NFL now.

I'm proud of him. He seems very kind. But I hope ESPN doesn't overdo this story on draft day.

Jeez, this guy's character is just shooting up the roof. If he plays well, the NFL has their ambassador.
