Re: Official UDFA Signing Thread
 

They usually do post it but not until they have all the name or invites. Someone else posted the numbers of UFA's we were to invite........was that the only numbers to be invited or the only numbers as of that time? I would hope more DE/DL and a few LB, CB's would be brought in. I also don't see why we can't invite some more WR even if they are camp fodder. We might find some one to develope.

Jamar Adams (S, UMich, 212, 6'2) Head banger... Benjarvis Green-Ellis (Ole Miss RB) and Erik Ainge... Erin Henderson is a MUST!!!

[quote=Soup's Uncle;445105]You'd think they'd post all of the guys they signed on the website.[/quote]

They will... once they've all SIGNED... for now, they've "agreed to terms".

I'm not so sure about this. KFFL cites NFLdraftbible.com as their source on this, yet NFLdraftbible.com has Gilberry as having signed with the Giants. Draftdaddy.com also has Gilberry signed with the Giants. I'd like for KFFL to be right, because he had 10 sacks for Alabama last year, but it looks to me like it is more likely that KFFL made a typo and he signed with the Giants.

All sites I've seen seem to agree that OLs Kerry Brown, Shannon Boatman, and Devin Clark have signed with the Redskins, as well as S Kevin Mitchell and WR Horace Grant. Draftdaddy also lists Arkansas CB Matterral Richardson, Iowa State QB Bret Meyer, Oregon State C Kyle Devan, and Oregon State DE Dorian Smith as Redskin UDFA signees. NFLdraftbible also lists OT Darren Marquez, Southern Illinois as having signed with the Skins.

I think several teams talk to these players and sometimes information about the talks leak out prematurely, so nothing is for certain until the Redskins officially announce the signings. Kind of like the Brian Roberts trade rumors, but fortunately we will know much faster than we did in that fiasco. LOL.

Thats awesome. The guy had 10 sacks last year playing LDE, so hopefully he can contribute to that LE spot about midway through the season.

....What? No Wallace Gilbery? Sad face :(

Re: Official UDFA Signing Thread
 

OFA's are nice and we can all develop man-crushes on whomever we please, but lets be realistic - if even one of these guys makes the final roster that has to be considered a huge boon. Not every undrafted player is a diamond in the rough - the vast (like 95% vast) majority are simply "rough".

Heyer and Alexander were great finds. But let's not go counting on building the team through these guys. They are mostly camp fodder and special teamers who [I]hopefully[/I] need not step in this year.

Well with the draft cut shorter it gives teams a bigger chance to find some players to make the team.
