Thing is with Kelly as the guys on NFL Network just said including Brian Kelly is that Chip has used a certain style for a long time with Oregon but he didn't always use the Zone Read offense. He made it his own when he went to Oregon. He will most likely re-design the whole system and adapt to his players. I would almost go out on a limb and say Barkley could earn the starting spot and Bring Vick in on situational plays. Kelly is the right guy to get the best out of Barkley.

Exactly. The main thing I think Kelly will carry on from college is the hurry up offense.

Ravens take Ricky Wagner, offensive tackle from Wisconsin

I know nothing about him except Wisconsin have a reputation for great linemen! Heres hoping

Solid lineman. Redshirt freshman and then played in most of the game across 4 years in college. Was moved to Left tackle in his junior year and had a cracking season and was touted as one of the top linemen going into his senior year but had a rocky 2012 season. Im sure the Ravens will get him back to his best.

Wisconsin are a bit like Alabama lately, and USC of the past few years except this one. You could draft one of their offensive linemen without even scouting them and you know you're getting a good player. Good coaching goes a long away, and Wisconsin are an O-line factory these days.

Shocked at some of the players still available. Poyer, Rambo, Wilson, Swope, Hamilton, Rogers... Even expected Bray and Dysert to be gone by now.

Very curious draft in terms of the talent of some players taken a lot later than you imagined they would go.

This draft was seriously lacking in elite - even very good - players and has a much of a muchness about the depth and quality - it pretty much came down to the preference of each individual team (and most of them ignored hype).

Sean Renfree-QB & Conor Vernon-WR both from Duke yet to be taken.

Mayock said Renfree had the best anticipation and touch of any QB in the draft. Both will make 53 man rosters at some point.

Broncos could well take a QB in the 7th and he would be on the list somewhere

Itssoeasy

Eagles take joe Kruger in the seventh round. Brother of Paul Kruger

HigginsJ

Eagles get a steal with Jordan Poyer in the 7th

Itssoeasy

They took Zac Dysert in the 7th.

Dunno but Buchanan from Illinois was an excellent pick

Bears get Marquess Wilson, nice!

The Pats have now taken three players from Rutgers with their final pick Steve Beauharnais. He joins the other 7th rounder picked earlier, Michael Buchanan.

BB is good friends with Tampa coach Greg Schiano, former Rutgers coach.

Greg and Bill have been in contact, hence the Jeff Demps for LGB trade.

I wouldn't be surprised if Greg gave some advice to BB on some of the Rutgers guys down the bottom of the draft.

Bill and Greg are known to be very good friends for a good few years now. They proabably would have had a repeat of last pre-season's joint practices, only for they're meeting up so early in the regualr season. The Demps - Blount trade earlier is another example of how tight they are. Then you had Greg, thankfully sending Talib to us last season.

Jeasus was in the outback so missed from mid 2nd on what happened Jesse Williams I felt he was a borderline first

That's Bennie Logan. Jesse Williams went in the 5th to Seattle.

Great spot for Lattimore to land. No pressure to get him on the field. Could see them stashing him away on he practise squad for the year.

Eh? If they did that a team would pick him up on waivers immediately. I'd expect if he is able to reach full fitness he'll be the RB2 by season's end and Gore's main replacement within two years.

Injured Reserve for sure.
Next year he'll tear defenses apart.

I don't think Okoye will be drafted TBH. Too much of a wild card. He's been pegged by Bucky Brooks as a DE, but I think he'd make a great TE.

It's a great year for non-Americans in the draft. Both Watson and Margus Hunt from Estonia are projected first rounders, as well as Bjoern Werner who is German

There's also another English guy who's expected to be drafted, but the name escapes me. Any ideas?

I've got the Draft on tape via Sky Sports, but am desperately fighting sleep as I want to stay up as long as possible to watch it...

I found the name. It was Tom Wort who eventually went undrafted as did Okoye. It was bugging me all weekend!!!

The Jags have signed a rake of UDFA's after the draft. 19 in all, most notably QB Matt Scott and FB Lonnie Pryor, also Jordan Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers' younger brother.

mikemac1

I didn't see these links posted already

AFC
NFC

Lists the UDFA your team has signed


Ravens doing their usual thing of taking an UDFA QB for camp.
The only player on the list I've heard of is Matt Furstenburg, the TE from Maryland. Might get a practice squad spot


Other notable names are:
Da’rick Rogers, WR, Tennessee Tech to the Bills
Matt Scott & Jordon Rogers, both QB's to the Jags
Tom Wort, LB, Oklahoma, the English player to the Titans

As reported above, Wort got signed as an UFA by the Titans and Okoye ended up in SF.

Tyler Bray a UDFA :eek: Chiefs picked him up.

Colin Klein went to the Texans
