Delegal had an agent while he was still in school?

How is this possible?

This is no reference to timing therefore it is hard to extrapolate from this quote. Most likely didn't sign until after the season, including the Bowl game.

I believe that as long as you do not officially sign with an agent, then there is no violation.
I am sure most of the NFL prospects had agents waiting for after the bowl game.

There's all sorts of contact beforehand, but as long as nothing is signed and no benefits are given, it's OK. In baseball, agents start out as "advisers".

I would have loved to see Delegal at safety. Man, that would have kicked a$$!

“As soon as the GoDaddy Bowl ended, (I signed a contract, then...) my agent said..."
Voilà - Everything's on the up-and-up.

How is it possible he thinks he is getting drafted? maybe he got the NFL and CFL confused

He's just trying to chase that dream. Sure, the odds are against him, but so were the odds against him when he was at Joliet JC after screwing up his freshman year.

Delegal does have the size and speed to play Safety in the NFL. The question is, can he make the transition to a new position after playing LB during college?

It's not uncommon.
Going the other way is almost unheard of, but I heard that some Safety out of New Mexico was able to do it a while ago.

Urlacher made the transition in the other direction, so. . .

The bears will draft him, hoping he will solve their safety problems.
