Man id take a Alabama DT any chance i can get and being an UDFA is even better. Dale has a good chance to make the team with so many questions at the position for 2024.

6’1 300  but well built, plays fast and competitive. Won starting role at Bama as a Freshman 

[TOboy]

Dale has a shot. Good motor, needs to add a little size/strength (which is not a terrific sign coming out of Alabama - you’d think he’d have had every opportunity to do so already).

They already drafted Dalton Kincaid so I'm not sure how much more you're looking for in that department.

It’s a joke. Happens all the time here. Remember all the drama over Ed Egan who snubbed us for the Cowboys last minute? Brandon Reilly? David Sills? Message board legends.

And I answered with a joke as well.  The line between slow WR and non-blocking TE is really small.

I like the lions so I’m cool with that. Ibrahim is a nice back. They have a good RB group with Gibbs, Montgomery and him

They're better at the undrafted guys than the drafted guys.

I’ll update as we hear who gets signed:

 

RB: Jordan Mims - Fresno State

OT: Richard Gouraige - Florida

DL: DJ Dale - Alabama

WR: Tyrell Shavers - SDSU (hopefully works out better than our last SDSU player 👀)

 

By Gawd, that's Richard Gouraige's music!

One UFDA makes it every 3 years or so… might be due

 

I think it's more like 4 or so per season who wind up on the PS and active for a couple of games.  That's $262,000 which is pretty good money for us ordinary Joes and Jills.  And often, at least 1-2 are signed to the active roster the following year.  Quintin Morris was 2021's example - signed to the roster in 2022

 

As far as actually signing to the active roster same year they were UDFA, that's more rare - Levi Wallace in 2018 and Reggie Gilliam in 2020 last I can think of.

But being signed to the PS for a year or 2 then making the roster is less rare - Tyrel Dodson UDFA signed to PS in 2019, roster in 2020; Cam Lewis PS in 2019, roster in 2021; Quintin Morris 2021 PS, 2022 roster

 

And of course, the Bills snipe and sign guys who spend development time on other teams PS
