Undrafted Free Agents

[Merlin]

Nelson spruce silly season is about to start ... we are gonna fall in love with a UDFA only for him to be cut on the final cut day

Well we did pretty good last year:

WR Alex Bachman, Wake Forest
WR Nsimba Webster, Eastern Washington
LB Landis Durham, Texas A&M
LB Natrez Patrick, Georgia
LB Troy Reeder, Delaware
TE Kendall Blanton, Missouri
TE Romello Brooker, Houston
TE Keenen Brown, Texas State
G Chandler Brewer, Middle Tennessee
G Brandon Hitner, Villanova
C Vitas Hrynkiewicz, Youngstown State
DT Marquise Copeland, Cincinnati
DT Tyrell Thompson, Tarleton State
RB Matthew Colburn, Wake Forest

Got some dudes out of that group who made the cut and still have a chance. I love the UDFA types man. Big fan of Web and pulling for Reeder & Patrick in camp this year.

 

[DR RAM]

Yes, great list of players. This is where, Snead shines.

I can't find anything official on David Woodward (I'm not on Twitter). Anyone hear anything?

Still unsigned, the concussions must be serious to teams.

 

[Ramhusker]

So we have

5 WRs
4 DL
4 CBs
2 QBs
2 LBs
2 RBs
1 OL


Funny how most people thought we needed OL help the most. We don't know what we think we know.

Bringing in all these guys for competition. I love it. Great way to find some good players for cheap. We signed 20 so it's likely that a few stick so that's going to be interesting.

Didn't we get a roster increase this season? 53 to 55?

Jonah Williams, DL, Weber State, had incredible numbers at his private workout. This guy could make the practice squad and from there, who knows.

Weber State football: Jonah Williams posts good numbers at private pro day workout

When outgoing senior defensive end Jonah Williams watched the end of Weber State’s first spring practice March 10, there’s little chance the NFL hopeful knew what would transpire in the next week and the effects it would have on his professional aspirations.

In the next 24 hours, the World Health Organization would classify COVID-19, the disease caused by novel coronavirus, a pandemic, Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert tested positive for the virus and the NBA suspended its season.

The resulting dominoes that fell are plentiful. One such impact came to football players like Williams, who was not invited to the NFL Draft Combine two weeks prior and counts on team pro days, where NFL scouts visit college campuses to view workouts and test draft hopefuls. But soon, the NFL axed all travel from scouts, effectively canceling college pro days around the country.

But this week, Williams and a handful of mostly Utah-based college players did what many players are attempting: completing a private pro-day workout set up by their agent, taking plenty of video to share with scouts to keep the draft process going — especially because the NFL recently announced its annual draft will still take place April 23-25.

Williams’ agent, Evan Brennan, detailed the All-American’s performance Friday on Twitter after Williams participated in workouts at longtime pro trainer Dave Stroshine’s “Stroformance” facility in Pleasant Grove.
Among Williams’ numbers: 30 reps on the 225-pound bench press, a laser-timed 40-yard dash of 4.67 seconds, a 35 inch vertical leap, a shuttle of 4.14 seconds, and a broad jump of 9 feet, 7 inches.

According to Brennan, those numbers rank in the following ways when compared to players at the NFL Combine: The best shuttle for any defensive lineman; the best 40-yard dash, vertical leap and broad jump among any defensive lineman over 265 pounds; and the second-best performance on bench press of any defensive end.

Williams’ draft prospects are as a dark horse at best, but he should garner high interest as an undrafted free agent. Absent a normal pro day, his private workout performance should help his overall prospects.

Yes, and the practice squad goes from ten to twelve, so these guys have a better chance than ever to stick in some capacity.

Awesome highlights, for Gaither. Good throws, but everyone I saw, was a single read throw.

I like Bryce Perkins out of Virginia. Always liked that School because of Academics and now with Bronco Mendenhall as their Head Coach, the program is getting better.

Perkins strong tough kid and has the ability to run with the football and I just want to see a Ram Quarterback take off and run by design. Have not seen that in a very long time and don't showcase any of Goff's runs.

Perkins started his college career at Arizona State in 2015, before transferring to Virginia. He started for the Cavaliers the past two seasons, and was electric at times. As a junior in 2018 he passed for 2,680 yards, 25 touchdowns and nine interceptions. An elite dual-threat, he added another 923 yards and nine touchdowns rushing.

After that campaign he was the subject of a lot of offseason hype, and there was even some darkhorse Heisman buzz going around. He wasn’t able to fully deliver on that hype unfortunately, and was less efficient in 2019. Still his mobility is well-suited for today’s NFL, and the Rams have virtually nothing at quarterback behind Jared Goff.

Los Angeles hasn’t yet re-signed Blake Bortles, Goff’s 2019 backup, and the only other passer on the roster is 2018 UDFA John Wolford. If the Rams don’t add a veteran, Perkins should have a good chance at the backup job.

WOW! Josh Love? He looks so smooth, quick release...I likey.

 

[Mojo Ram]

I hope that some these kids are not confusing our logo for the Chargers, and in fact some may have signed with them instead of us...

Just kidding

At least they'll show up in the right city.

I'm not sure if that's this year or next to be honest with you. Starting this year would be my preference though.

Always have preferred a running QB as a backup if your starter is a pocket guy. Throws the defenses gameplan out the window once your starter goes down.

I would post I concur, but you and I always on the same page unless we are communicating about Daniel Fales.

It's DAVID Fales. Where is my 3rd stringer ringer this year? I need to find out.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Fales is a NY Jet, currently 2nd string behind Darnold.

Ya know, at some point ya'll going to have to give me credit for mining a career backup QB that's been in the league for 6 years.
