SMOSS89 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 The Vikings have 1 UDFA on their starting OL (Anthony Herrera). The Giants have 2 UDFA on their starting line(Rich Seubert, *EDIT* Shaun O'Hara). The Panthers have 1 UDFA ont heir starting line (Keydrick Vincent). The Broncos have 1 UDFA on theirs (Casey Wiegmann) and lastly The Chargers have 1 UDFA for them (Kris Dielman) There are probably a lot more, but I wanted to go through the 'elite' lines and find some gems they got through signing UDFA's. In addition, there are tons of 6th and 7th's featured in the elite lines. So whats the lesson? The Redskins should stick to the player they like, not who we like. Its their system and they have the best offensive line coach in the league, so I'll take my chances with them developing guys. (But srsly Skins, sign a few of those guys out there ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-bomb Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Cerrato said the team is looking to bring in offensive linemen for this weekend’s mini-camp. According to Coach Zorn, the team expects to sign 10-12 undrafted free agents for the camp.

terpskins10 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Since when was Chris Snee a UDFA? Last I checked, he was a 2nd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-bomb Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Better help was available in the 3rd round. I'm just sayin. Says who? Obviously their board didn't reflect that, they even said this was a bad draft for OL. Let Buges work his magic and complain when it doesn't work.

terpskins10 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 EDIT: Beaten Yeah, WHAT?! Haha jk The OP does make a good point though. Jeff Saturday is the one I usually think of when thinking of undrafted linemen. He's arguably the best center in the game and he didn't have his name called on draft day. I'm not confident in our FO's ability to find those gems (they're almost 100 percent going to sign a couple UMD linemen), but it can happen.

Temple Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 This is just off the top of my head, but I'm 99% sure Snee was Coughlin's first or second round 2 pick when his Giants tenure began. Snee's the one who got Coughlin's daughter pregnant, if I recall correctly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMOSS89 Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Sorry I meant O'Hara, the center. Either way, I'm right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboomking Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Okay, I like Buges as much as the next guy, but when was the last time we saw any buges magic? Maybe this was just a poor OL draft after the 1st 4 tackles. We need better run and pass blocking, and that starts with better, and younger personnel.

G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Stephon Heyer And the Colts had two undrafted starting O-linemen when they won the Super Bowl (Saturday and Ryan Lilja) and they continue to start to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Sick Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Says who? Obviously their board didn't reflect that, they even said this was a bad draft for OL. Let Buges work his magic and complain when it doesn't work. I think Bugel's magic wand ran out of juice a while ago. Where is Reinhart? Has Heyer stepped up and grabbed the ROT position? If he didn't play at MD, we probably never would have brought him in! Lefotu had the medical issue, which is excusable. Otherwise, all he is working with are high draft picks / starters brought in through free agency. Wilson? Molinaro? Reggie Coleman? Where is the player development? Bugel v1 >>>> Bugel 2.0 Edit: I hear all these names of UDFA who went on to greater things. What is the average, like one per year? Excuse me for not having the faith in our front office to choose the correct UDFAs to bring in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Brian Waters is another undrafted O-lineman. 4x Pro Bowler. 2x All Pro. Not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 im still bummed we didnt take shipley. he was sitting there in the 7th. theres no hurt in taking a guy that was good enough to be at the combine at a position where depth is bad.
