Undrafted signings
Only guy I saw was TLL. Not a good sign for the others if you aren't on the signings list.

TLL signs with the Saints. That speed on carpet might be something.

Problem is, the Saints already have Brandin Cooks playing the slot. So, TLL is really going to need to impress to make their team. But I guess it's all about getting into a camp and getting on film for the rest of the league to see.

I wasn't sure he would get an invite at all, so I'm excited for him. He seems perfect for the CFL. Plus he gets to be around Drew Brees for a while, so that's cool.

The Steelers should give Cam Stingily another shot. He impressed in camp last year before getting banged up.

Yep, but that same carpet will probably hurt his foot or his calf or his something.

He had a tough finish to his college career but when he was healthy he played the game with pure joy, it was evident and it was fun to watch. God bless him, I hope that his injuries are behind him. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to see him play for the Huskies.

i love watching him play, too. You just can"t expect to make the NFL when you get hurt just running. I hope there is some miracle heal out there.

RE: Undrafted signings
His best and probably only shot is KR and/or PR. If this is the reason he was signed, he has a chance. At his size, I think N,O, was thinking along these lines.

RE: Undrafted signings
also surprised Boomer Mays didnt get signed yet. I thought he'd for sure get into a camp.

looks like the poor bench and agility numbers for Ness and Conlon are hurting them unfortuantely

I am surprised Ness and Conlon did not at least get a look see. They both started a lot of games for NIU on very productive teams.

I was hoping Brescacin would get a shot.

DesRoy has a legitimate chance of sticking. There is a new coach in NY and that means change. His skill set fit well, blocking back and a surprise receiver. I can see him pulling and hitting these rush ends.

As long as he doesn't jump offsides.

Bad snapping probably did Ness in. Hard to be an NFL center if you struggle to snap the ball.
