[an error occurred while processing this directive] Undrafted Free Agents
By: Douglas E. Love

Just because the draft is over doesn't mean there's nothing to look forward to.

The draft is an important part of building your team's roster, but with the draft down to only seven rounds, teams rely on filling some of their needs with guys who "slipped through the cracks" -- better known as the undrafted free agents (UDFA's).

Let's say your favorite team is Oakland, who didn't draft a needed linebacker ... or the Giants, who didn't draft any offensive line help ... or the Cowboys, who only had 5 picks, three of which were used on defensive backs ... How are they going to get those needs met without signing an expensive veteran free agent? UDFA's.

Take a look below and see the names of some of the players your team might be thinking about bringing into camp this spring.
