But.... can't the players if offered a job by the NFL leave for the NFL or do they have to wait till their season is over with the UFL? and on that note aren't the two seasons at different times?

Once they sign a contract with the UFL, they are comitted for the season (which ends in late November). So you'll probably see guys like Herzlich wait until the last possible minute to decide whether to sign with the UFL team that drafted them

Maybe thats what happened. I remember something from last year players who were mentioned to be playing for a UFL team all of a sudden were not and were assigned to an NFL team.

The CFL is different though right. Players can leave at any time?

none of these guys declared for any sort of UFL draft therefore they are NOT locked into playing in the UFL

the draft on the UFL is more like a "rights to the player" draft should he decide to play in the league

Without a CBA what can we do?
Call them up and tell them we're interested?
Cant sign them with this stoopid lockout going on.

We can't even do that with the lockout.

8th Circuit Court, end the lockout now!

I can't believe I almost forgot about Noel Devine RB out of WVU

He had a down year mostly because of injuries but when he's healthy he's an enormous talent.

Re: Which Undrafted Free Agents should we try to sign?

I'd probably look into these:

NFL.com news: Devlin tops list of best available undrafted players


NFL.com news: Devlin tops list of best available undrafted players

National Football League: NFL Draft 2011 - Terrence Toliver

National Football League: NFL Draft 2011 - Ricardo Lockette -I like the comment about him being one of the fastest at 6-2, 211lbs and maybe they could work on his hands and dropping the ball.

National Football League: NFL Draft 2011 - Joe Lefeged -I'm not saying he's great or anything but he was a K/P returner in college and was used to ***block kicks*** we could use that on special teams.
