    WR will be a nice battle in camp. It’s really only 4 locks to make the team (woods, tank, metchie, and Nico). Hutch and Noah Brown should have the upper hand on last 2 spots

    huh? Shanahan offense discovered Arian Foster... maybe the best undrafted running back ever. Also Terrell Davis was a sixth round pick.

    John Randle
    Rod Smith
    James Harrison
    Wes Welker
    Antonio Gates
    Tony Romo
    Vinatieri

    Small, fast and fearless reminds me of "White Shoes."

    I like a RB who doesn't slow down while making decisions approaching the line of scrimmage.

    UDFAs don't make that much unless they have definite potential that will attract other teams as well. Due to the rookie salary structure, UDFAs can come out ahead of 7th, and even 6th, round picks. That aspect of Free Agency where you can turn down a contract when other teams are offering a higher bonus/better terms to sign with them instead. Most UDFAs will make NFL minimum wage, maybe $10,000 to sign, and get cut by the end of the exhibition season.
