Nope, he wasn’t drafted, he was contacted as a free agent… by a bunch of teams… and he went where he wanted to…

detroit.

Just got a call.

Fuck, yeah.

I didnt know you had a kid.

is that that huge guy from candelight?

Yup

omg

hott! i know an nfl player!

:tup: OT sorta, what does it mean when he is contacted as a free agent? Whats the diff compared to being drafted? Whats the diff in $$$ too? What are his options from here?

The difference is he wasn’t drafted, he can probably be picked up for cheaper, and they don’t waste a draft pick on him.

So - he’s not like, some amazing player - but they see potential.

He got hurt his 2nd half of his senior year, so lots of teams saw that as a risk.

Man, I wish the Jets picked him up, that would be fucking awesome.

i hear undrafted free agents get a signing bonus anywhere from $1000-$15000 to join a team in camp…thats what i heard on the nfl network…they had a thing about undrafted FA’s

Pics or ban?

My roommates cousin was picked up after the draft last year by the Cards. He was on the practice squad making $90k with everything paid for. He was “too small” but he packed on some weight and hit the gym all the time. Went #1 in the NFL Europe Draft… Hopefully he will get to play this year.

Hes getting us tickets for a game and getting us on the field and in the locker room before hand and all that…

Cant wait to meet Edge!
