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.

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

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

For example, Furman has nearly twice as many Southern Conference football championships as the next best SoCon member, and over three times as many as The Citadel....which is why they must carry our luggage
