NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith said Wednesday the treatment of Dez Bryant and other prospective draft picks needs to be conducted in a professional manner. Smith was reacting to Bryant being asked if his mother was a prostitute by Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland during an interview in March. "We need to make sure the men of this league are treated as businessmen," Smith said in a statement. "During interviews, our players and prospective players should never be subjected to discrimination or degradation stemming from the biases or misconceptions held by team personnel. NFL teams cannot have the free reign to ask questions during the interview process which can be categorized as stereotyping or which may bring a personal insult to any player as a man."
