UNDRAFTED FREE AGENT THREAD (UPDATED LIST)

I've watched a few breakdowns on Garrett now.  I dunno how the hell he went undrafted.  Did he test poorly at the combine or something?  Character concerns?  He catches as well as any WR in this draft outside of possibly Doctson and Shephard and he's big. 

He has small hands - 9". Reports also say he struggles with the press, his 3 cone drill wasnt good at the combine either. Those are the main knocks I read on him, dunno if they are accurate. He is definitely a red zone target with a huge wingspan though.

From what I just read on Garret, he lined up on the right side 95.7% of all snaps, over 90% of his yds last year came off slant and go's, seem routes, and hitch and go's.

Havubg said that, Ricky Proehl will do wonders on the kid. This move just made Stephen Hill a very very nervous man

Despite oddly small hands for his size, he had a fine drop rate of only 2.8.

9" is really small, but he certainly didnt seem to have problems catching the ball.  Even saw a number of nice 1 handed catches.  They were snag and scoops though, not OBJ stickem glove one handers.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
