Besides Nick Jean-Baptiste, there are a few others I'd like to see contacted, including Minniefield, Loiseau, Brown and Phillip Thomas. Would also like to bring in another Center for a look. Who would you like to see signed?
 
I'd definitely bring in Chase Minnifield...
 
I just knew Cincinnati was going to end up with Burfict. I can't say I wouldn't have minded seeing if we would give him his shot.

I'd like to give Darrell Green's son a shot just because he's Green's son. From what I hear like his Dad he doesn't have great hands, but... if he has his father's speed and instincts he definitely can help the team.
 
Dammit, NJB to the Ratbirds. I was really hoping we'd nab the big fella. :(

Thanks for the link Bob!

yeah, he should do well there filling in for Ngata.
 
The top UDFAs according to Walter.com, players that we signed, and players that we may want...

2. Chase Minnifield - CB, Virginia - Signed by us.

Edited to add...

Throughout the evening, the remaining players that were ranked by Walter were signed. However, to get the second best prospect from amongst the best of the UDFAs is nice to see.

Very limited sample size of games played in college, though.
 
I haven't seen Dwight Jones, WR from NC get signed yet... he's a beast... but I'm a Tar Heel born and breed though. :)

nevermind... wikipedia says he's a Texan
 
Josh Oglesby from Wisconsin.

The Good.

The Bad.

Knee problems.

Overview:

Josh Oglesby was supposed to be the next great offensive tackle to come out of Wisconsin. And he still could be. However, some major knee injuries have slowed his progress and the Badgers certainly have other linemen who are ready to take over if Oglesby cannot stay at full strength.

As a freshman, Oglesby moved all around the line filling in here and there. He ended up starting three games and appearing in all 13. By his sophomore season in 2009 the 6-7 Milwaukee native started ten games. He missed the other three games with what would become a major problem with his knees. In 2010 Oglesby was ready to bookend the strong Wisconsin offensive line with Gabe Carimi, but recurring knee injuries seriously hindered his season.



Final Projection:

If Oglesby can get healthy and stay healthy, he can be a great tackle at Wisconsin and in the NFL. He has a lot of potential and earned the starting job in 2009 and 2010 over some stiff competition, but that competition may keep Oglesby on the bench during the 2011 campaign. Oglesby will have to stay in the mix for the left tackle job with the Badgers for his senior season or at least secure the right tackle job and stay healthy if he hopes to follow his former teammates like Carimi into the NFL.
