George Bryan TE NC State
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Calling it right now, he's gonna make the final roster.

SDOgo, I thought you said we wouldn't sign Bryan? (not trying to call you out, just wondering what made you think that)

I can see between 3-4 of these UDFAs making the 53 man roster. And several more obviously making the PS.

D-1 talent who because of circumstances played at an FCS school.


What people tend to realize is that Adrian Hamilton signed his letter of intent to play for Oklahoma State. After they asked him to grey shirt, he ended up walking on and playing for Texas Tech. You don’t just walk on to a Division one program that features Michael Crabtree and Graham Harrell by not being good. Adrian couldn’t afford the school anymore and had to leave because he was paying for everything out of his pocket. So this is not a kid that can’t compete with others, but a player who just has not had the opportunity to do so, let’s make that clear.

Keep the linemen coming. Wouldn't mind if almost all of the extra UDFAs this year were offensive linemen.

What's that make, five or six?

No centers, mostly OT , weird, as center was our weakest link....

Seriously, he might be the steal of the entire draft, and I mean for all teams. His highlight reel is like a work of art. He owns these kids.

For sure. He did what he should, dominate.

Well, even some OTs can be projected to play center.

I'm not sure Dallas was impressed enough with this center class to find the answer there, but if the Cowboys can find someone with the ability to convert ...

Not sure how many the 'Boys can sign to get to 90. Seems like alot and no 4th QB which they always take to camp. Also many times some of these guys are reported as signing but in reality are just coming in for a workout. We shall see.

I think Jones said we would sign up to around 17.

Thanks for this. I knew he transferred from Tech but didn't know why (assumed it was grades or run in w/ the law). Glad to hear that he doesn't have any character concerns.
