I am aware of the USFL's policy on the teams contracts, but now that the championship game is over players can ask for their release making them eligible to NFL franchises. I am far from a GM, but the thought occurred to me we may be able to get some OL depth hopefully center. Anyone's thoughts or knowledge is appreciated.
 
They have Williams listed as their starting center, with Deiter as the backup. So I don’t see any need for them signing a center from an USFL team for depth at the center position. I don’t know of any NFL team that has 3 centers on their final 53 roster.
 
I believe USFL players are allowed to sign with NFL teams on Monday.

There are a couple of decent OL the Fins could take a look at, not immediate starters probably but you might get lucky.
 
I'd be surprised if any USFL player comes in and makes an impact on any team this year. There are so many 1b players unsigned that play in the NFL as opposed to what one star receiver I watched for the Philly team say in a post interview that, "us B league guys still have a dream"
