Re: Official UDFA Signing Thread

I think we should go after that deaf WR, he sounds like he's got some real heart, can't think of his name though.

Jets ink rushing leader Woodhead to free-agent deal

Chadron State running back Danny Woodhead, the NCAA's career rushing leader, signed a free-agent deal with the New York Jets on Sunday night, according to the player and his agent.

Agent Chris Gittings said he and Woodhead thought the Jets were a good fit after teams passed on the 5-foot-7½ running back during the draft, mostly because of his size. Woodhead ran for 7,962 yards in four seasons for the Division II school in western Nebraska.

Terms of the deal for the two-time Harlon Hill Trophy winner were not immediately disclosed, and the Jets would not confirm the signing.

"I'm more than happy with what I got," Woodhead said.

I think he was pushing 3,000 his Junior season. That's almost 250 yards per game.

He's a big and fast CB, but I believe he's coming off an injury. Good story and I hope he gets a shot somewhere.

Yeah I read that story on Martel Van Zant as well, I wouldn't mind bringing him, but if we don't bring him in I hope he gets a shot somewhere else and is able to succeed, I always root for guys like that to make it.

Erin Henderson reunited with his big bro in Minny. That's pretty cool. I was shocked he wasn't drafted. He left school early too. Oops. Hope he catches on with the Vikes. I would have liked to sign him to bolster LB depth...

I wish him luck over there. When that boy gets healthy he is going to be a pro bowler.

Re: Official UDFA Signing Thread

My thread title is kind of inaccurate I think. Often times, these guys are invited to multiple camps to try out before actually being signed. That's probably what's happened with Henderson and the Vikings and Pats. So Vikings and Pats could both be right (or wrong).
