    So only 2 guys for the O-line? Rex/Whaley must be feeling pretty good about Jordan Mills and Ryan Groy.

    Re: Undrafted Free Agents

    June free agency and (more likely) camp cuts will produce a few linemen, one or two we can sneak in under the cap for depth. I think it may be more of an indication that they feel good about Henderson being able to start and Velasco giving us some initial depth. Maybe Richardson gets it together but I'm not banking on it.

    My favorite signing of the UDFA's. This guy is just under 6 feet and weighs 227. Small for OLB.

    Yet his production is off the charts, as he flys to the ball and can also be an in the box safety. 2nd team All-American. We can use him in situation, as he makes plays all over the field. Very happy to see this signing.

    I'm willing to bet he sticks as a special teamer right off the bat while he puts some of that proverbial "sand in his pants." Love that video. How can you not root for him?

    Based on his RAS, he's in good company...

    Zimmer's RAS score ranks ahead of every defensive tackle prospect from the past 10 years, including current NFL stars Ndamukong Suh, Aaron Donald and Gerald McCoy:

    Re: Undrafted Free Agents

    Love the play where he, a 300+ DT, literally jumps over a diving OT.

    This is UDFA I'm rooting hard for.
    Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

    Great story that Stryker wrote on players tribune before the draft.

    Im excited about some of this years UDFA's Stryker, Zimmer and Young Gronk could all have a chance to stick and contribute. And I hope they do.

    Here we go again. Back to the Dick Jauron days of the Coy Wires of the world. LBs playing safety and safeties playing LB. Didn't work out too well the first time. Maybe The Ryans will do it better.

    Well Tank Carder was a third rounder, this guy is an UDFA. Don't think theres much lost if he really is too small for the NFL.
