Joe Thomas made headlines in April for skipping the NFL Draft in order to go fishing with his father and despite being invited to be in the Green Room on Thursday, Georgia Tech's Thaddeus Young will be in Tennessee to spend the special evening with his family.  

Like many players in the draft, Young has been away from his family for several months.

"I got invited to New York for the draft, but I?m going to hang out with my mom and relax," said Young on Monday.  "I had strongly considered taking the invitation.  We rented out a conference room in a hotel back at home where we are going to have a lot of food and we are expecting more than 60 family and friends.?
