My dad is a teacher at Millsaps. I grew up on that campus. believe me, there are 5 high schools in the Metro jackson area that could beat 'Saps on any given day. South Panola in North MS would probably beat them by 60. If they came through Millsaps, they are nothing to worry about.

Chris Jackson from LSU signed with the Buffalo Bills. 7 LSU Tigers signed as free agents and 5 were drafted.

You are welcome.

Thanks for the heads up on that list Bobaganoosh. Not sure where you got it, as I can't find all those names in any one place? But, great job. On Walter Thomas, that would be huge for the D-line, if this kid could pan out.(No pun intended)

I am sure it was the one from Millsaps. I posted a thread on this kid a couple of weeks ago. Very fast. Named to the All Div-III Team. Member of SCAC Champions Millsaps Majors team. I watched this kid this year score three touchdowns in one game. He scored two on Punt Returns and one on a reception, no one could put a hand on that kid. Very Very fast. Hope he does some good in Pittsburgh...

My wife is a Millsaps Alum...

Would have liked to see us sign Jesse Daniels or M.Bullit, but they may have been picked up. Thomas was the guy I wanted, even in the lower rounds of the draft, and now we have him. WHOPPP EEE DEE DOOOO! Finally have a back up who can match up if HT goes out. Good move here! I also like the CB from Rutgers. Physical kid, might make a move to S. Tellin' ya, some of these guys have better potential than the draftees! Dyakowski has a lot of upside. He didn't play too much at LSU because of his lack of experience, but given time, he could be a player who can make this team. Yet another rb which is CRAZY, but the good outweighs the bad on most of these pickups.

but wait a minute, you didn't really like our draft........the signing of undrafted fa's are just a continuation of the draft, isn't it? come on, you're either on or off the wagon...............

I don't think that guy will be happy until we trade our 2008 7th round pick for Urlacher and Briggs

LOL, now that's funny. I don't care who you are!

Also, where's the link to our signing Thomas?(Walter)

Hopefully the big man is not just a big kid. I mean, It's a rare opportuninty for and undrafted free agent to make any team, and he seems to be the perfect type of player to play defensive tackle, But if his attitude sucks when he gets to camp we will wave bye-bye to him. I hope to God that he has his head on straight.
