Q. Congratulations.
JOSH EZEUDU: Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
Q. What position would you say you'll play?
JOSH EZEUDU: I will play anything the team needs me to play. I just can't wait to get there and get to work.
Q. What was your reaction when you heard you were being selected and it was going to be to New York and the Giants?
JOSH EZEUDU: It was very surreal, like you think about it so much, but until it actually happens, it kind of shocks you. I was speechless. I didn't know what type of emotions I had, so as soon as I heard my name being called, let it all out. It took a lot of power to wait to get here, but the hard work is still not done, though.
Q. Are you with family or friends? Where are you?
JOSH EZEUDU: Yes, I'm with my family right now.
Q. In Georgia?
JOSH EZEUDU: Yes, in Georgia.
Q. Was it a surprise to you that it was the Giants and here in the third round?
JOSH EZEUDU: Everything, I mean, I would say for your name to be called is always a surprise. Everybody expects it to happen, but until it actually happens, like it actually kind of shocks you. So, yes, it was a big surprise, but at the end of the day, I just thank God for everything.
Q. Did you have a hunch the Giants were interested throughout the process? What was your sort of connection to them?
JOSH EZEUDU: I just met with Coach Johnson before my pro day, and he was also at my pro day, too. So that was the only interactions I had with them.
Q. You played multiple positions in the same drive? How does that --
JOSH EZEUDU: Yes, sir.
Q. Is that by design?
JOSH EZEUDU: That's just what happened based on whatever our team needed. So if our team needed a left guard, then I would move to left guard. If we were struggling at tackle, I would move out to tackle.
