It's happened before in the NFL. The most obvious one being La'el Collins.
It was after the 3rd or 4th round... I believe he would have eventually signed as the 4th round contract would have paid him way more than the UDFA contract he signed in Dallas.. Different situation but we're talking about a 1st round talent (projected top 15) that was not drafted due to collusion amongst the teams that were concerned about him being questioned in a capital murder case where he wasn't even named a suspect. Looking back I'm sure Miami wishes they drafted him in 7th round. Nothing to really lose.Though, that was a unique last-minute situation. It got complicated as I believe there was a threat from his agent, once they got beyond a certain point in the draft, saying if you draft me we're sitting out a year.
Collins was an obvious A-hole though. I will mark a lot of this kids issues up to simple immaturity, and a gf that drove him nuts.It's happened before in the NFL. The most obvious one being La'el Collins.
Who is the player in this photograph?

There was also a Bryan something, huge WR, too. I remember how upset the board was when he was cut and placed on the PS.I remember, his name was Stringfellow. Made the one play and then disappeared.
Also Marvin McNutt.... He was the talk of training camp making crazy circus catches, his OC from college at IA was our wr coach. He caught the game winner in the 4th preseason game, then was cut the next day....There was also a Bryan something, huge WR, too.

I hear you, but I can't help but feel were going to wake up three weeks down the line to Windows report how this lad creeps into a woman's apartment only to have her boyfriend turn on the bedroom light... Nah that only happens in the movies :-)It's gotten to the point where I'm getting blood sucking thirsty for Preston Williams tweets!!! This kid has me going bat chit crazy about his potential.
last great one was Wake, so we are due....At this point -- it's looking absolutely absurd this kid wasn't drafted -- and grabbed by day2!
What he's done so far is look the same way he did in college -- like a dude on different level.
It's still way too early to tell, but if this progression continues he could become the best player
we've grabbed UDFA in years and years. Maybe ever!
Hard to not hype the kid at this point but -- wowser am I so thrilled we got this kid!

That eczema will keep him out a couple of pre season games.so it begins
Should be moved up to the 1's and have him switch off with Parker and Stills
Let X cover him for a bit and see what he can do
That was indeed a sad situation for such a talented guy...what a waste..I hear you, but I can't help but feel were going to wake up three weeks down the line to Windows report how this lad creeps into a woman's apartment only to have her boyfriend turn on the bedroom light... Nah that only happens in the movies :)
