Dabol obviously know this guy very well and has all thi insight. This has Dabol written all over it. I hope this guy get on the roster. Never hurts to have Alabama connections.

boyst Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 23 minutes ago, co_springs_billsfan said: Hmm... I just don't remember this in previous years until Sunday A friend of mine was an UDFA in 05 iirc. During the whole draft coaches and personnel called him asking what he's up to, saying they like him, want him, etc. He was projected 5th thru 7th. Coaches calling getting a feel for how busy he was talking to folks. After a while the agent rep had them unplug the home phone and the only contact was through the agent, this is normal, to keep teams from gauging the interest and backing off a cold player. Anyway, late in the draft Gruden himself called him and had a 2 minute conversation, Cowher also, to talk about how much they want him to be a part of the team and not sure they'll draft him but he will make a good addition as a backup with an option to get a chance to make an impact. The last round of the draft teams were already making steps aligning the stones to have him as an UDFA. He had 4 contracts offered to him immediately after the draft. Played 3 years, left in 4th with second team. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same once I watched his highlight tape. Honestly after the top 3 picks in this draft this guy gets me excited to see what he can do. He could be a dangerous weapon for Josh Allen and Dabol. Very exciting. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even fell into that trap thinking he had a real shot at making the 53... he never even ended up on another practice squad or anything. Pretty crazy for a 2nd Team All american, who I thought showed some flashes in preseason. Goes to show why it's best just to let the professionals do what they do, and try not to overreact like so many here about not drafting the right guy in the 6th or 7th round.
