Here are the most recent UDFA Guaranteed salary figures. I don't watch BC football, for obvious reasons. Are there any BC football fans here, who can explain why Burt received the second highest guarantee this year, at least so far? His college stats are extremely mediocre but they must really like something about him. There are not a lot of clips of him on YouTube.

I wouldn’t go by stats with BC players. The only time the last coaching staff would pass was on 3rd down, and that was invariably just for two yards after they’d run up the middle twice on 1st and 2nd down for 4 yards total.

Every. Single. Time.

It's sometimes a pain to figure out where Burt is on the field before the snap, but you can see him blocking if you look up videos of AJ Dillon.

why not just post it in the Free Agent thread...?? He is a free agent now. Certainly more relevant than the UDFA thread?

It didn’t exist at the time

Every year our udfa class looks good and we know we'll get contributions from some. Hopefully big time contributions.

If WR Jeff Thomas can keep his head out of his hind parts, that’s a stone cold 1st round talent. No question.

Not surprised to see Nick Coe, Jeff Thomas and JJ Taylor highly ranked on that list. Really hope those guys put it together and make the squad, they’re all talented. A little surprised to see Isaiah Zuber ranked so low.

I think Zuber looks like someone with a lower ceiling/higher floor. For obvious reasons people get excited about the high ceiling guys even though there is a lot of mental cleanup necessary.

But would be happy to be wrong about Zuber.

Pumped about Taylor & the whole class in general. We always do well here. Lewerke & Smith as udfa are steals. Idc if neither does a thing their on par with other prospects drafted, drafted too early.

I respect your opinion, but is Taylor any good? He looks good on highlights video clips, but watching all the snaps not so much (on Mark Jarvis What’s on Draft videos that you posted few years ago). He seems to be getting tackled at or behind the line on most snaps.

It’s a weird ranking. Players we were most wrong about.

I'm pumped in terms of where we got him (udfa) .

He's tiny so he's going to limited to an extent. You obviously want him in space. I'm thinking we try him in the slot. Running routes out the backfield.

He doesn’t blow me away on tape but he just strikes me as a guy who can be very solid. Not expecting a world-beater here but a lot of things about him just say “quality 3rd/4th WR” to me. Would be very happy with that.

Ross12 · May 2, 2020

You guys weren’t kidding about this J’Mar Smith kid. His tape looks really good. Accuracy isn’t always great but he looks excellent moving in the pocket.

Patriots Appear To Be Changing Undrafted Free Agent Signing’s Position

Ohio State tight end Rashod Berry is listing himself at OLB on his Twitter profile. Of course Belichick wouldn't let the 6'3", 263 pound guy with 34¾ inch arms and a 38½ inch vertical (in 2017) play on offense. He played on defense in 2016 and also a little bit last year.

Very interesting

Patsgofor4 · May 4, 2020

From what I read about him last week, he was supposedly one of the best athletes on that Ohio State team. I couldn't find any speed testing numbers, though.

All the moaning about no WR's being drafted was unnecessary, between Jeff Thomas, Sean Riley, Will Hastings the Pats will come away with at least one good WR and the room will be competitive.

Would love to see the speedsters knock out Sanu Meyers
