Former UGA receiver A.J. Green prepares for upcoming NFL draft.

Former UGA receiver A.J. Green is charting the process leading up to the NFL draft in a series of diary entries with Falcons beat writer D. Orlando Ledbetter.

In his most recent entry, Green details his experience at the NFL combine and the shift in focus to UGA's Pro Day in Athens March 22.

As for the NFL lockout, the potential top-10 draftee says 'I don't really know how I'm going to be affected by all of this' and adds, 'whatever happens, I'm going to be ready.'

A.J. Green only played three seasons in Athens (and missed the first four games of his junior season) but still ranks third all-time in receiving yards. Is Green considered the best receiver in school history?

Green doesn't have any preference in regards to his professional home. 'It doesn't even matter if I go to a warm-weather city or a cold-weather city. I just want to play in the NFL.'
