Amateur plumber Bradberry now professional cornerback for Panthers
Players who aren't invited to the green room at the NFL Draft decide to wait for their moment in a lot of different ways, though most of them involve friends and family and a party of some sort.
Newly-minted Carolina Panthers cornerback James Bradberry was with family, but he wasn't exactly partying when the call came in from Panthers' brass that they were making him the 62nd overall pick:
Newest Panthers CB James Bradberry was fixing his mom's toilet when he got the call from Carolina. Seriously

Bradberry didn't have time to fix the toilet. "It may not get fixed" now

Hopefully there's another, functioning, toilet in his mama's house while she waits for him to finish the job.
