IW lacked the combine score to get drafted. Good college player but wasn’t awesome to make up for his size

Great spot of I.Williams, good QB and schemes for short slot type plays.

Solo barely knew you

This team has a history UDFAs making the roster and beyond.

We had a player named Solo Turner?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel pretty strongly that Isaiah could've easily netted more than $240,000 had he come back to Illinois this year?

Man, nightmare draft result for IWilliams and Keith Randolph. IWilliams got some BAD advice from his inner circle to leave for NFL.

Randolph might have an opportunity to earn a roster spot, as the Bears DL definitely lacks depth.

Tarique Barnes joins Jake Hansen in Houston. He might shine as a special teams guy.

I suspect he could have earned considerably more on an NIL deal if he stayed another year. Oh well, wish him luck.

Man, what exactly are the Falcons doing? I'm happy for Paddock but the moves made by that team are downright confusing.

AP NFL draft grades: Bears land highest mark

Some teams see an immediate impact from a draft class. Others have to wait on a return. The Houston Texans went from worst to first in their division last season after selecting quarterback C.J. Stroud and edge Will Anderson Jr. back to back with the second and third overall picks.

Paddock was basically signed to be an arm for practice purposes until the last cutdown day in August

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

I know the NFL gave out signing bonuses to UDFA's. but when did they start offering some guys guarantees on salary for first year ?

Keith has a good chance to make the bears 53 man roster.

They're getting good money and hopefully stepping on the field this fall. Hardly a nightmare.
