The Unofficial Furman Football Page

I believe Pline, Johanning, and and Blackshear all got free agent contracts. Roberto got a tryout.

This was the year I thought we'd get a guy back in the NFL. My money is on Johanning.

thats 4 of 22 starters with NFL opportunities

about 20% of starters.

Wonder how may FCS programs can say that?

Believe Mercer, Chatt, and WCU had 3 each … maybe with a few others to come. Saw 2 (QB & WR Ismail) from Samford.

Miller was with Tampa last year. I consider practice squad guys as making it. They just don't get a helmet on Sundays.

Miller was active for a game or two last season. Practice squad guys become free agents at the end of the season and TB resigned him the day after their season ended so they must like him.

Siuth Dakota State had 7
Villanova had 5
North Dakota St had 4

SDSU had 2 drafted and looks like six signed free agents. Only 11 FCS players drafted this year.

11 last year, 12 this year.

SDSU with NINE guys - 2 in draft (round 3 and 4!!!) big time …. And freakin SEVEN UDFA and mini camps. That’s a crazy FBS team right ther

You saw them play in the playoffs...they could beat half the FBS teams easily!

P12 , What team signed Blackshear and who is giving Roberto a tryout? Thanks

Bills & Saints, respectively

Who has the best chance of making a roster? I think Pline and Blackshear have the best shot.
