I like the first four guys. Dyakowski will make this team I think... very underrated and only had one season to start at LSU. I think McKnight will also. Palko and Thomas would be good on our practice squad. I don't know too much about the others. Looks good, looks good.

I guess at this point anyone has a chance but I read the UDFA = camp bodies... The unofficial roster has 7 WR's!!! Barring injuries I would doubt that one or two make it thru camp to the practice squad from the list of UDFA signings.

Thomas was allowed to participate in Mississippi States pro-day by coach Sly Croom. He is one helluva man. I just hope the Saints also sign UFA Quinton Culberson who tore it up in the SEC at linebacker...even if his 40 times were a little slow.

not at all...colston was a few picks away from being one of your "warm bodies." we could have starters in the next few years out of this free agency class.

Steelers haver reportedly signed Chris Jackson, WR Millsaps College....How the @#$% do you let the them sign a guy that was at the school you hold training camp at....

looks like a big guy....I think Hollis Thomas went undrafted didnt he....

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.

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)

jrmllb 04-30-2007 04:25 PM

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...

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

JOESAM2002 04-30-2007 07:22 PM

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

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

nedly 04-30-2007 09:18 PM

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.

tractorsrus82 04-30-2007 09:28 PM

Once again, where is the link to the sighning of Walter Thomas. I can't find it anywhere,but hope it's true.

TURLEYFAN 04-30-2007 09:57 PM

Walter Thomas has a my space page.He has people congratulating him for entering the NFL.He also as a pic of him with N.O.Saints writing.He comes across a a real badass by looking at his my space.I just hope he doesn't bring anymore negative attention to this city.
