This guy is a special teams beast! I can see him
Its the other DE they signed as a TE, Bryce Sterk.Benito Jones, Donnell Staley and are both interesting guys who could be unpolished gems.
I think they want to turn Tyshun Redner into a TE so i would imagine he is a practice squad project.
Kirk Merritt is certainly athletic enough to make a shot.
I would have liked to take a flier on Trey Adams as well.
Im surprised we even signed this many UDFAs. Between a few guys from last year's team that showed promise and thr sheer volume of players we drafted, I didnt think we had any room.
Also Isiah Ford was balling at the end of the year and seemed to me a solid placeholder for Preston Williams if P-Dub isnt 100% to start the season.
Doubt any of em make the roster. Maybe p squad
I was also surprised that we had signed so many so quickly. It seems in the past we would get about the same number of players, but it seemed to take place over a longer time span.
My conclusion is that these UDFA's were already on our draft board. It makes sense that a well prepared draft board would account for players that were not in the draft because no one knows who will move up or fall in the draft and you would need to have players identified for the later rounds who you would like, or else loose your position on the clock. This would be a natural end result of all the scouting that was done up to this point.
This would be a reasonable way to be "prepared" which is beginning to look like a hallmark of our new Front Office.
