Figured I'd create this, although it looks to be fairly slow (since the Pats are close to the 80-man cap after this haul).

Wonder what's the best way to follow this? Reiss? Realpatriot twitter?

Re: UDFA news thread

Question: does the 80-man roster limit include unsigned draft picks? What about players that have not signed their tender yet, like Mankins?

If they do count then the Pats are going to be able to sign what, three undrafted free agents?

IIRC, drafted rookies don't count until they sign their tenders, but UDFAs count as soon as they sign. RFAs like Mankins don't count until signed.

Thanks, that's what I thought and that makes sense. Brain lock, I couldn't remember how that worked.

Damn a lot of my guys getting picked up by other teams. Jarrett Brown, Perriloux, Chris Hawkins.

Hopefully we add a RB.

With the Bears having so few picks, I'd bet that Freddie Barnes makes their roster.

Too bad. Blount would have been a good UDFA to pick up.

Dane Fletcher, Montana State, NFL Draft - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com
03/21/2010 - PRO DAY RESULTS: One of the all-time sack leaders in the Big Sky conference will get a lot of attention between now and the draft, and a lot of teams are going to be looking at him as a possible outside linebacker in the 3-4 defensive scheme.

At Montana State's pro day, he ran a 4.61 and 4.63 in the 40-yard dash, had a 36-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot, 3-inch broad jump, a 4.35-second short shuttle, a 6.93-second three-cone drill and did 29 bench press repetitions at 225 pounds. The Bobcats' pro day took place March 16 outdoors on FieldTurf with no wind at all in front of a Seahawks scout. - Gil Brandt, NFL.com

I saw 6-2 250. Being 6-4 is a big difference.

If you want a mental image of Fletcher from just a measurables perspective, picture Jerry Hughes.

Hughes 6016 255 4.69 26 34.5" 9'10" 4.15 6.99
Fletcher 6015 250 4.61 29 36" 9'03" 4.35 6.93

His height is only 6'1 5/8". He's not 6-4.
