Something I found

$20,000 is a good sign

I used to track the signing bonuses undrafted kids were getting in the days after the draft. They could range from no bonus at all to upwards of $25,000. If an undrafted player gets $20,000 or more to sign it means there were a number of teams after him and that the team that signed him had a draftable grade on the player.

WR/KR Larry Beavers and DT Marlon Favorite -- both with the Carolina Panthers -- and safety Colt Anderson with the Vikings are three undrafted players picked up who have significant signing bonuses and stand a good chance to make the squad, or at least the practice squad. You have to figure that six to eight undrafted players will make NFL rosters this year and another six to eight will be assigned to practice squads.

Very interesting. I would have thought Cadogan got the highest bonus. I still don't think Favorite or Cherry have a real good chance at making the 53. Cherry probably has a better chance. They will only keep 4 DTs IMO, so between Lewis, Kemo, Hayden, Irvin and Favorite, who do you think is the odd man out?

Cadogan probably got the same, the panther's site just says competitive signing bonus and another site says more then one team wanted him. So I'd say he probably got the 25,000 bonus as well.

Hopefully the worse player is the odd man odd.

Do you not feel we have a better chance of stashing Hayden on the practice squad than the other two? I just have a feeling that the player who is the odd man out, will be the player who garnered the least interest from other teams. Think what we did with Mackenzy B last year.

good find... very interesting. i agree with d-run probably not going to keep more than 4 dts. but that means he has a good chance to be signed to the practice squad. always important to keep a security policy.
