(Merged) Undrafted Rookies/UFA Wish List

[BossHog]

Ok guys. A few days before we bring in a lot of NFL wannabees. Any prospects that didn't get drafted that you hope will be given a shot to make the team? Check out SI.Com if you don't have another resource. They have a by-position breakdown so you'll know if a player went undrafted or not.

My UFA wishlist

TEs Adam Bergen, Alex Holmes, and Victor Sesay (local) :oink

[skin4Life28]

I want Ernest Shazor to be next to Sean Taylor. Can't believe he didnt get drafted.

[skin4Life28]

Bring in Kay-Jay Harris from WV to good back up

[monk81]

[diehardskin2982]

WR:Geof McArthur California, Chuancey Stoval Florida St

CB:Brandon Browner Oregon St., Shirdonya Mitchell Missouri
SS:Ernest Shazor Michigan, Junior Rosegreen Auburn
DE: Jim Davis V.Tech, Geoge Gause South Carolina

I'd like Jim Davis, Ernest Shazor, and any other lineman bugel and williams think could be good prospects. by the way, anyone know of a site that has the undrafted guys listed yet, or atleast shows the players by category and lists whose already been taken?

santonio thomas would pair up nicely with griffin, in our dt rotation. Its hard to talk about UFA unless youve watched them play. Ive watched Thomas play, and in Miami they pretty much rotated linemen in and out so he could continue to have that roll with us.

You hurricane guys sticking together.... lol just playin.

Actually I am going to go with a Nittany Lion here. Derrick Wake is a underachiever that is an AMAZING athlete. He could be a great special teams player for us and maybe more if Coach Williams can get him together. I have never seen anyone like him blocking kicks. I also would lobby for George Gause DE from South Carolina, Jonathan Clinkscale G Wisconsin, Adam Bergan TE Lehigh, Jammal Brimmer Saftey UNLV, Josh Davis WR Marshall, Eric Coleman DT Clemson, and Marcus Lawrence ILB South Carolina.

according to the UFA list, Miami DT Orien Haris is listed there. Which would be a STEAL. But, as I suspected it was a mistake. I check the canes website and sure enough hes playing this year. That guy will definitly be drafted next year.

i played highschool football with victor Sesay he was a monster reciever but didn't go to a big college because of a problem with him getting his grades changed to stay eligible.

[Drift Reality]

Tyler King - Athletic defensive lineman with good upside for the next level. Gets leverage on opponents, quick off the snap and displays lower-body strength. Moves well laterally, plays with balance and rarely off his feet. Tough, yet at the same time an intelligent defender who reads the action. Not strong and ridden from his angle of attack by tight ends. Lacks explosion and suddenness.

Lorenzo Alexander - Hard-working interior plugger with marginal size and growth potential. Gets off the snap with a great first step, keeps his pads low to the ground and drives up the field. Displays speed moving laterally with the ability to pursue from the backside. Quick with his hands, fights to get off blocks and wraps up tackling. Doubled by opponents in the middle of the line. Tough, yet intelligent and immediately locates the ball. Lacks bulk on the inside and easily handled at the point by a single blocker. Marginally productive on the college level.

Jim Davis - Athletic defensive lineman effective stopping the run or rushing the passer. Explodes off the snap with a quick first step, plays low with leverage and holds his ground against double teams. Fast off the edge when placed at end and fluid making plays up and down the line of scrimmage. Displays footwork moving laterally, immediately alters his angle of attack or redirects to ballcarriers. Gets pushed up the field and exploits immobile blockers. Undersized for tackle and engulfed at the point. Struggles getting off blocks if he does not beat opponents with the first move.

Adrian Awasom - Athletic prospect who plays bigger than his listed size. Keeps his pads low to the ground, gets leverage on opponents and immediately alters his angle of attack. Stays with the action, strings plays laterally and tough to knock off his feet. Doubled by opponents yet holds his ground against blocks. Works his hands nicely, chases around the field to get involved in the action and wraps up opposing ball handlers. Plays with a nasty attitude and gets a good amount of momentum going up the field. Not quick or explosive off the snap and lacks speed to the flanks. Lacks bulk and slow getting off blocks. Not as productive as scouts would have hoped and labeled as a bit of an underachiever.

George Gause - Athletic line prospect who consistently shows flashes of brilliance. Solid edge rusher with a quick change of direction and ability to alter his angle of attack. Pursues well laterally, displays excellent range, and makes plays in any direction of the field. Fast up the field, rarely off his feet and focused on by opponents. Slow diagnosing the play or locating the ball. Lacks an explosive first step off the snap and overall suddenness to his game. Handled at the point once engaged in a block.

Former Vol Munoz decides to quit football
By ELIZABETH A. DAVIS, AP Sports Writer
April 25, 2005

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee offensive tackle Michael Munoz decided to quit football after he was not chosen in the NFL draft over the weekend, his father, NFL Hall of Famer Anthony Munoz said Monday.

The All-American started 46 games in his career despite injuries, including a torn rotator cuff that ended his senior year before the Southeastern Conference championship game in December.

Anthony Munoz said his son has not yet decided what he plans to do now.

``When you're not drafted, I think that's a pretty clear indication as Michael has said,'' Anthony Munoz told The Associated Press. ``He'll tell you one door was closed and there's four or five other doors being opened at the same time. It's kind of a divine intervention here.''

Michael Munoz, visiting with his family in Ohio, declined to be interviewed by telephone.

He told WNOX radio in Knoxville he is ready to move on.

``I had fun playing football. But I never found my identify playing football,'' he said. ``Football isn't who I am. I knew the day would come when I'd have to walk away from the sport and I'm fine with that. Some people are so wrapped up in it they can't walk away because that's who they are. It's time to make a clean break.''

Michael Munoz of Mason, Ohio, was one of the most highly regarded recruits in the country coming out of Moeller High School in Cincinnati.

He graduated early from Tennessee with a bachelor's degree in political science and started working on a master's in public administration last season.

He was awarded the Draddy Trophy as the nation's top scholar-athlete in December and received $25,000 in scholarship money. He is considering getting an MBA, his father said.

Michael's wife Emily will graduate from Tennessee nursing school this spring.

``The amazing thing about it is how well Michael and Emily are doing even as tough a blow as that was,'' Anthony Munoz said.

The elder Munoz believes injuries hurt his son's chances.

Michael Munoz, a team captain for two seasons, had to redshirt his second year at Tennessee because of a knee injury. He has missed some games with other injuries and played through pain at times. ``We were totally shocked that he did not get drafted. He started four years at Tennessee,'' Anthony Munoz said. ``Knowing as many people in the NFL as I do, there was no inkling that that was going to happen.'' Anthony Munoz, also an offensive tackle, was the Cincinnati Bengals' No. 1 pick out of Southern California in the 1980 draft.
