Has a prospect ever told a team not to draft him during draft?

[Crazy Patriot Guy]

I know about Bo Jackson and John Elway and most recently with Eli Manning. (and Keyshawn Johnson during the later years of the show "Coach" ) What I'm curious about is has there been a player that got a call from a team to be, let's say, the 18th pick of the draft and he said no thanks?

Especially with the difference in money, I would assume players would like to go as high as they can but I've been curious here recently if a player just flat didn't want to play for a team and asked not to be taken. Does anyone know?

Mayock forgot to ask that question during BB's history lesson.
