@RapSheet: More than a round to go. Many players left will contribute. Look at Packers. Since 2005, they’ve had 77K snaps from UDFAs. Next highest: 54K.
It'd be tough to pull off on short notice. But nothing would top dropping a Honey Badger on that treadmill.
Now is the time for Ted to earn his salary......a couple of overlooked guys here, a couple of real other team releases in a couple of months and see Ya on Super Bowl Sunday.

As she's dead he should win at least 99/100.

Jesus, take a look at this highlight reel.
Bethune-Cookman does it again, I hope he pans out as well as these highlights suggest.
Crockett is a really interesting guy. Put up some big time numbers and is a very good receiver out of the backfield. Is also a good pass protector and a tough runner that likes contact.
Could be a possible 3rd down back?

Montgomery is a bigger Cobb?...Yeah like Herman Munster is a bigger Abe Lincoln I guess.
I'd give a left one for one of those magical seasons where a burner like Coxson comes out of no where...and peeled the top off of defenses all year.
I had the same hopes for Janis, but that would be racist to say it...and another city would burn.
Be a shame to lose Pulaski ...
Janis may make a leap this year and let's remember that receivers can get banged up.
No shortage of teams making offers to Matt Rotheram.
"In the craziness after the draft, Rotheram remembered receiving offers from Minnesota, Pittsburgh, Dallas, the New York Jets, San Francisco, Oakland, St. Louis and Detroit, among others.
"I stopped taking calls after a while," said Rotheram. "Green Bay was calling me near the end of the draft"
Fabbians "Fabo" Ebbele, T, Arizona:6-7½, 311, 5.55. Has extremely long arms (36¼ inches). Needs strength; just 22 reps on the bench press.
He doesn't need strength, he needs shorter arms. Those short guys with barrel chests could always do the most presses because the bar only had to move 4 inches.
Tavarus Dantzler, oh my gawd. hope that translates also. wrecking crew

Shorter Arms for Better Gains
"Having short arms is typically good for bench pressing, according to coach and elite powerlifter Brandon Lilly. Bench pressers with shorter arms don't have to move the bar as far between the point where it rests on the chest and the lockout. This is undoubtedly an advantage, as the less distance the bar has to travel and the shorter time you have to bear the load, the stronger you'll be."
I'll wait for MnCheeseBong to chime in
"Reaching for the stars is damn near impossible with short arms"
Bob McGinn year book quote.
I just had my arms shortened. Now when I lay down to bench press my arms are extended completely just to touch the bar. Yesterday, I did infinity lift at 400 pounds. I am a workout warrior.
You're a regular T-Rex
I have been eating a lot of fiber
CB: Ladarius Gunter of Miami
OLB: Jermauria Rasco of Louisiana State and James Vaughters of Stanford
WR: Javess Blue of Kentucky
Gunter is really intriguing, if he can run well enough. He had a rotten 40 (4.69), but seemed to play pretty well in Mobile and he'd be the only CB over 6' on the roster, should he make it.

NFL Draft Scouts (CBS Sports) had Gunter rated as high as a second day pick, at least two other sites had him in the 4-5 rnd range, (not shure what tier that is).
