Stolen from the Falcoholic: DT/FB Roosevelt Nix, Kent State Nix is listed as a defensive tackle, which worked out well for him in the MAC, where he earned first-team all-conference honors in all four seasons, but at 248 pounds, he'll likely be expected to make a shift. That's why the slash-fullback part of his description is intriguing. DL Nosa Eguae, Auburn Eguae is a good fit for a 3-4 DE, or a three-tech guy in a 4-3 look. DE Jacques Smith, Tennessee Smith had a pretty impressive pro day, running a 4.9 40 and completing 27 bench press reps. CB Tay Glover-Wright, Utah State Glover-Wright is projected to be a cornerback or free safety. He ran a 4.36 40 at his pro day. RB Jerome Smith, Syracuse The Falcons signed another Syracuse player, adding Jerome Smith, the Orangemen's leading rusher last season, to their roster. OL James Stone, Tennessee Stone, a center, has a lot of strengths. His weaknesses are largely fundamental issues that can be overcome with effective coaching. He's an intriguing addition. QB Jeff Matthews, Cornell Tall, big hands, shaky mechanics but decent accuracy. Interesting backup quarterback prospect. WR Bernard Reedy, Toledo He's small, but he's fast and has soft hands. Has potential as a slot receiver option or return specialist. WR Geraldo Boldewijn, Boise State Boldewijn is the opposite of Reedy. He's got great size--he's 6'4" and 215 pounds. WR Freddie Martino, North Greenville Martino alternated between defensive back, quarterback, and wide receiver in high school. He set a Division II record last year with 1,680 yards on 146 receptions. He's an impressive athlete with a strong work ethic. P Matt Yoklic, Pittsburgh The only way this guy takes Matt Bosher's job is if Matt Bosher gets moved to free safety. I'm just being honest. Hopefully he'll have a good showing in camp and can catch on elsewhere. ILB Brenden Daley, Hawaii He's 6'3". 250 pounds, and apparently the Falcons are super-serious about adding as many linebackers as they possibly can right now. They certainly had success with Paul Worrilow and Joplo Bartu last offseason. TE Jacob Pedersen, Wisconsin You wanted a tight end? Well, now you've got one. He's kind of small for a NFL tight end, but he's a reliable receiver and a decent blocker. S Kimario McFadden, South Carolina McFadden worked out for the Falcons prior to the draft, and they must have been impressed by what they saw, as they've signed the safety as an undrafted free agent. DE Walker May, Vanderbilt He's 6'5" but only 250 pounds. He can play from a three-point stance as well as standing up, and that coupled with his size could indicate that he'd be in consideration as more of a hybrid edge-rusher. DT Donte Rumph, Kentucky This guy is huge, 6'3" and weighing in at 323 pounds. He's also not very athletic or explosive, which maybe goes along with being so huge. S Javon Marshall, Vanderbilt A strong safety from Vandy, Marshall is 5'10" and 202 pounds. He had 5.5 tackles for loss, one sack, one interception, and one fumble recovery last season. He was a defensive co-captain and was on the SEC Academic Honor Roll. S Jestin Love, Central Arkansas Love is 6'0", 208 pounds, and I can't find a lot of info about him out there, but he's referred to as a "physical safety," so that sounds just great. http://www.thefalcoholic.com/2014/5/10/5705398/falcons-round-out-the-day-with-undrafted-free-agents

He's still focused on basketball. He's not going to make the NBA but he could make more playing overseas than he would on a practice squad.

I don't think anyone wants to take a chance on a drug user who quits on his team, I think you can handle one or two red flags but the multiple ones he has combined with being away from a team for a year, it's not a huge stretch, I guess if there was scuttle butt Chip wanted to take a flyer on him more teams would be interested but here we are. Shame I feel bad for the guy he had a poo poo time of title, but he didn't do anything to help himself either.

Packers are doing their UDFA thing. Per Pete Dougherty's twitter: "Packers have agreed to terms with 2 UDFA not already reported, Alabama OLB Adrian Hubbard n Miss.State DE Denico Autry, per NFL sources." "Hubbard is 6-6, 252 n had 10 sacks n 16 1/2 tackles for loss last season. Autry is 6-5, 273, had 2 sacks nf 6 TFL last season." EDIT: So now Green Bay has picked up the below: Joe Thomas LB SC State Chase Rettig QB Boston College Rajion Neal RB Tennessee Ryan White CB Auburn Jake Daughty LB Utah State John Fullington OG Washington State Carlos Gray DL NC State Justin Perillo TE Maine Demetruce McNeal DB Auburn Tanner Miller S Iowa Bronson Irwin OL Oklahoma Jayrone Elliot DE Toledo Wilson Van Hooser WR Troy James Sims LB Kansas LaDarius Perkins RB Mississippi State Adrian Hubbard OLB Alabama Denico Autry DE Mississippi State Paul Layton P Temple (Tryout) Jordan Stanton LB James Madison (Tryout) Jamal Ellis OL Newbury (Tryout) Hot Diggity! fucked around with this message at 15:02 on May 11, 2014 |

Dalton (Robert Morris) DT Greg Hickman (Florida International) CB Mohammed Seisay (Nebraska) S Gabe Lynn (Oklahoma) S Jerome Couplin (William & Mary) S Garrett Waggoner (Dartmouth) *tryout* James Franklin could push Kellen Moore off the roster. Cornelius Lucas is gigantic and got $20,000 of the available $80,000 for signing bonuses, so the Lions must really like him. Jerome Couplin has better measureables than Calvin Pryor and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix but didn't get invited to the combine.

Jerome Couplin has better measureables than Calvin Pryor and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix but didn't get invited to the combine. Franklin has a better arm than Moore (then again several of us probably do) and he's likeable in my opinion, but man I'd be stunned if he made a roster. Other than the three guys I think have already been noted I haven't heard anything else about the Chiefs. I'm sure they're collecting guys but let me get overly excited about receivers who are terrible already you jerks e: Oops I was using that rant sports thing someone posted yesterday, it doesn't seem to be updating (or hasn't for KC).

Patriots Justin Jones TE East Carolin Asa Watson TE North Carolina State Tyler Beck TE/FB Bowling Green Roy Finch RB Oklahoma James Morris LB Iowa Cameron Gordon LB Michigan Travis Hawkins DB Delaware Deylan Buntyn, DL North Carolina State Tyler Ott LS Harvard Jeremy Deering S Rutgers Notably Justin Jones is gigantic, 6'8, 280 lbs and is a WR in TE's clothing. Missed last year due to academic eligibility. Asa is Ben Watson's brother, but lost a year due to needing heart surgery. Tyler Ott was one of the two rater Longsnappers in the draft, so yay I guess. Gordon is exclusively a ST pickup, but apparently James Morris was pretty okay at Iowa. Also like 3 of these guys were kick returners, so hopefully they find someone to replace Blount's kick return production. yeah.... And finally Rutgers!
