I agree with you Maxie. At the very least this is going to be an awesome experiment.
The guy with the limitless physical tools vs the guy who is already a winner.

Reading McGinn's story on the UDFAs, I think Dantzler, Crockett, Collins, and Pinkard are the most intriguing to me.
This seems awful:
Measurables: 6-3, 252, 4.76. Vertical jump of 28½, broad jump of 9-0, 12 reps on the bench and Wonderlic of 9. Arms were 32 5/8, hands were 9.
for an OLB. JERMAURIA RASCO, OLB, Louisiana State
As does this: Measurables: 6-2, 248, 4.87. Vertical jump of 32½, broad jump of 9-4, a phenomenal 35 reps on the bench and Wonderlic of 25. Arms were 32 1/8, hands were 9¼.
for JAMES VAUGHTERS, OLB, Stanford
Are they both going to be ILBs?
Rasco had a nice day rushing the passer at the East West Shrine game. I doubt he's got ILB ability.
Vaugthers is more interesting. He has played outside and inside and he actually kind of dominated. PFF loves him:

From what I've been able to gather it sounds like he bombed the positional drills. His game is all power, hands, and motor. Think Erik Walden with a Stanford education. I'm thinking its a good special teams skillset but there is some interesting upside too.
These guys, would make excellent UDFAs

The Packers had agreed to a contract with another undrafted rookie back as well, Malcolm Agnew of Southern Illinois
Same article as above post,
So they liked Ripkowski more than him?Quote:
Crockett said about 20 teams tried to sign him after the draft, and he chose the Packers over Oakland, Baltimore, Atlanta, Washington and Cincinnati.
"(The Packers) called around the sixth round, they said if they were looking at a back they were going to take me," he said. "But at the end of the day, they still showed they had that interest."
(Aaron Ripkowski, Christian Ringo, Kennard Backman)
Have to wonder what some of those 6th and 7th round decisions are based on. There's not much between them and the UDFAs, so I tend to think they pick guys who they feel have the best chance of being drafted by someone else. Which makes Ripkowski an odd pickup, who else was going to take an FB, why not guarantee you can get someone else into camp and bring him in as a UDFA?
Some of those decisions could be made based on info from those phone conversations. If a player reports he's had other calls, might move him up the list to be drafted rather than UDFA.
4 fullbacks (including Ripkowski) were drafted. From Crockett's comments it sounds like GB picked Ringo over him.
TT needs to sign a fullback named Tubbs so we can have a Miami Vice backfield.
Those numbers aren't really that close to Shazier. In fact, he's a poor man's Jake Ryan. They are almost identical to Ryan--except Ryan tested much better in the short shuttle and a bit better in the 3-cone. And Ryan attained his numbers at the Combine--which tend to be more reliable than Pro Day numbers.
