CE: When did you move to the United States?

AD: When I was 7, I moved to San Francisco, California. Then when I was 10, I moved to Denver.

CE: What do you remember most about France?

AD: Playing soccer in the streets a lot. Every Tuesday there was a pizza truck that would come to our neighborhood. It was like a routine and the whole neighborhood would go to the pizza truck and eat. It’s the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life.

CE: What was it like having to adjust to living in America as a kid?

AD: Everything was really different for me right away. I remember my sister teaching me about words that we couldn’t say. I learned how to say "ow" instead of "ay" for when I got hurt because it sounded like I was saying "hi". I remember thinking everything was a lot bigger and we had to travel everywhere by car, which was weird, because in France we just walked everywhere or used the subway

CE: What was the draft like for you?

AD: It was really cool. I didn’t get invited to the combine and I didn’t think I was going to get drafted. So I was just sitting at home watching it on my laptop. Then my name got called and I was shocked. I got really excited and started calling everybody, my phone started blowing up, and then Peter (Vermes) called me so it was a really cool experience.

CE: So you had not been expecting to get drafted at all, and you heard your name get called in the first round? How did that feel?

AD: Yeah it took me a second to realize what just happened. It was a really cool experience.

Mitch Cissell: What is your favorite thing about living here so far?

AD: Everybody is really nice here. Everywhere I go people are saying hello and they are super friendly and I really like that.

MC: We saw you carrying water around for the guys, what else do you have to do as a rookie?

AD: It’s all the same stuff you have to do as a freshman in college. After practice is done I put all of the equipment away. I fill the fridge with water and stuff like that. It’s not bad at all.

CE: You’re roommates with fellow rookie Saad Abdul-Salaam. How has that gone so far?

AD: It’s been good. We have some intense FIFA games. There is lots of yelling during those. Other times we just nap and chill in our apartment, maybe go grab some dinner. Tim (Melia) lives in our apartment complex with his wife so we hang out with them too.

CE: Okay now for some serious questions, rapid fire style. One Direction or Justin Bieber?

AD: I’m going to have to go with Justin Biebs. I actually kind of like his style of music. He’s actually pretty good at singing and he has some songs that I like.

MC: If you could do a duet with anyone, who would it be and to what song?

AD: I would sing with Beyonce for sure. I have no idea what song. I would let Beyonce pick the song.

MC: What is something you’ve always wanted to do but have been too afraid to try?

AD: Bungee Jumping. I’m afraid of heights, but I’m going to do it one time at least.
