Anyone believe this kid has a chance to make the Dolphins roster this year? Seems to be a winner with a lot of positive intangibles. :ponder:

I don't think he actually signed an UDFA deal. I believe he is on a mini camp tryout. Which means they needed an arm for that weekend.

Brock Jensen
Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports

There’s always hidden gems to be found when the NFL Draft rolls around. That’s part of the beauty of the whole process. It’s a scouts dream to find the overlooked guy that no one really pays attention to, then take him late and he eventually turns into a stud. Whether it’s someone like Tom Brady (6th round), who’s found Hall-of-Fame-caliber success, or someone like Jason Kelce (6th round), who’s merely rock solid, there’s always hidden gems. North Dakota State QB Brock Jensen could be that guy in 2014 NFL Draft.

Look at any ranking of the QBs in this draft class and you won’t find Jensen anywhere near the top. Most pundits have him ranked right around 20th, some higher, some lower. When you look at his list of accolades, you have to wonder why he’s ranked so low. 3x National Champion, threw for 8,598 yards with an impressive 72/21 TD to INT ratio and chipped in 1,240 rushing yards and 35 rushing TDs in his career. Oh yeah, he’s also 73-7 as a starter going back to high school. And he’s not even predicted to be drafted?

Someone is going to get a steal in Jensen. Flat out, plain and simple. Someone is going to get a heck of a player in this kid.

Take away his statistics on the field and look at the numbers he put up at his recent Pro Day. 6-foot 2, 225-pounds, 4.70 40-yard dash, 34-inch vertical, 9-foot 2 broad jump, 4.35 20-yard shuttle and 7.06 3-cone drill. That’s an athlete with size right there. Even if he had a noodle for an arm, that’s a good enough package of measureables to take a flyer, maybe as a tight end, H-back, OLB, special teams demon, etc.
But he doesn’t have a noodle for an arm. He put up prodigious passing numbers for a reason. No, it’s not like he was facing SEC defenses week in and week out while playing in the Missouri Valley Conference, but he still showed he was capable of making NFL throws. Just so happened he was making NFL caliber throws against lesser competition because the BCS coaches didn’t find him. Don’t blame him for their blunder.
Plus, we’ve seen him against very strong BCS-level teams. Just look back to last August when the Bison went to Manhattan Kansas to take on the immortal Bill Snyder’s Kansas State Wildcats, the defending Big 12 Champions fresh off an appearance in the Fiesta Bowl. In front of the second largest crowd ever at Bill Snyder Family Football Stadium, Jensen went 21-30 with 2 TDs and a rushing TD en route to a shocking 24-21 win. Throw KSU with Minnesota and Colorado State as Div 1 FBS teams who were beaten by Jensen.

Hey, I’m not saying Jensen will necessarily be a franchise QB. But it’s not impossible, either. He’s far from a polished, finished product, and definitely needs to keep working on his accuracy. But he’s worth taking a shot on late in the draft, even if he only ever amounts to a backup. He’s a hard worker, good leader and a proven winner with a nice physical skills package. Even if he tanks in preseason, as a late round pick it’ll be minimum financial risk so you can cut him and move on.

But he deserves a shot. Which GM has the cajones to take a risk on a proven winner?

Brock Jensen said he is signing a contract soon with the Dolphins and is flying there. It's not a try out but an actual contract

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ----------

I believe he said he is going to sign sometime today
 
I don't think he actually signed an UDFA deal. I believe he is on a mini camp tryout. Which means they needed an arm for that weekend.
Abramson said he couldn't sign due to a school rule until after this weekend. He is supposed to sign when he arrives in Miami.

They are bringing in another qb to throw on a tryout basis. His name is Clint Chelf, and he played at Oklahoma St.
 
I heard he actually got a 10k signing bonus which is not always given to udfa's. I caught that on the radio here in Fargo, not sure how accurate that info is.
 
Brock Jensen Joins Turner in Miami, Shepherd, Williams Sign

It doesn't matter who we put in at QB, according to spesh, they re all doomed as long as Hartline is still on this team...
 
I hope Jensen can provide legitimate competition for Devlin. Devlin needs to take the next step or Miami might have to completely revamp the backup situation behind Tannehill next offseason.

Heard the same thing in Bismarck about the signing bonus for Jensen. Dolphins want someone to push backups and possibly replace Moore after this year. Don't know if he will make it but I've learned not to underestimate the guy. Heart of a lion.
 
This kid is legit. I'll be surprised if he doesn't take Devlin's spot, tbh. I think he looks that good.

There are some small college specialists on a couple of draft forums I read. They weren't high on Jensen all year. Consequently I wasn't surprised he went undrafted. We signed some talented prospects but I suspect this guy is being overstated.
