I need help understanding something !

[hemi13]

Okay, I know that the Raiders took Pryor in the 3rd round. What about the rest of the players in the supplemental draft? How come we haven't heard anything except Pryor? Does that mean no one else was taken in the draft? I guess I don't understand the supplemental draft. Please, someone explain this to me.

Yes you are right.

No other players were selected in the supplemental draft. Those players are now UFAs.

Nobody else was taken in the supplemental draft... Anyone that was eligible is now a Free Agent, allowed to sign with any team.

If you make a selection in the supplemental draft, you are basically forfeiting that pick in the following year. So, to acquire Pryor, the Raiders gave their 2012 3rd round pick.

I would like to see the Bills sign North Carolina DE Mike McAdoo. Any chance of that?

Nope, Baltimore already signed him.

Also Keenan Mace is now not eligible for a NFL contract due to a UFL contract he signed that was no previously disclosed.
