Do these players get a bonus, or do they get a per diem?

Really liked Carlton Mitchell as a raw sleeper when he was coming out of the draft. 6'3" 215 who runs a 4.4-4.5 and is a competitive guy who likes football, but needed a couple of years to learn proper technique in catching and route running.
Cowboys seem to be taking the lead in the NFL on these reserve futures guys, and it's a good move. Even if one or two just become replacement level players, they're good bang for the buck against the cap.
Despite labeling myself a "realist", no one understands my pain or appreciates my special truth. Stupid world.

Ray Dominguez is the name that intrigues me.
Anyone know more about him?
"I don't understand it Stephen, it's opening day 2014, where is everybody?"

He could only fall that far, because he was built up so much.  |

A WR showing up for camp and can't pass the running test tells the tale. He didn't seem to improve during the year and Jones now looks silly for all his pontificating... No "Championship" here... |

Aug 12 2012 - OLB Cameron Sheffield has stepped forward in the past week and displayed a real burst on the pass rush off the edge. The Chiefs may have a logjam on the outside with starters Tamba Hali and Justin Houston ahead of Sheffield and Andy Studebaker. A fifth-round selection in the 2010 draft, Sheffield missed his rookie season and last year saw playing time almost exclusively on special teams. When Houston established himself at mid-season, Sheffield's defensive time ended up with 18 snaps in the last 13 games. Coming out of Troy, Sheffield has made the transition from college defensive end to an outside linebacker role.
