The UDFA most likely to make the 53 man is...

Time to start a new streak!

Multiple sources have the same list of nine and that may bring the camp total to the max 90. Certainly once the team signs a vet or two.

I'm gonna go Ar'Darius, I liked him a lot and I think size is the only reason he wasn't drafted

I believe in talent over size, if Tyrann Mathieu is an All-Pro as a 5'9 175 lber then there's no reason a scrappy dude like Ar'Darius can't latch on as a nickel for us.

If you look at all the top nickel guys in the NFL they're almost all UDFA's that got passed over for being too small, it's crazy that these types of players keep getting undervalued

Honestly think it’s no one. I would say Ar’darius but that’s a really crowded secondary. I think he’s destined for IR unless he has a monster camp and forces their hand. If I had to pick someone I’d guess

Sarell
Ealy
Poljan
Washington

In that order. But I think the first three end up on the PS and Washington either gets IRd or plucked off the PS by a different team.

I would have to wait until preseason games start. Can't go off names and what they done in college

I can't really evaluate the players, but there is certainly some room for depth at swing tackle, tight end and DT. Traditionally, it's someone who kills it on special teams.

So on that basis I'll go with Ar'Darius Washington, Who was Trevon Moehrig's backfield mate at TCU. On tape he looks like a great player, can cover and hit/tackle, but he's tiny and hard to project a position for him. But I can see him contributing as a gunner and reserve slot corner.

I think 3 have a good shot:
Tony Poljan
Adrian Ealy
Ar'Darius Washington

I think the DT has a good chance because of his position but I don't know anything about him as prospect

**BcRaven** · 05-03-2021, 10:59 AM

I'm with the Tony Poljan crowd. I even mocked him to us in the PICK SIX thread.

Tony Poljan [6' 7" - 251 lbs. - TE - CMU (3) + Virginia (4th)] in his last two college seasons : 71 catches for 907 yards (12.8 YPC) with 10 TDs... Bc

Ar’Darius Washington will make the team.

Yeah yeah he’s small he’s undrafted etc etc, but the kid has the heart of a lion. He’s going to be all over the place making plays and he’s going to force his way onto the roster.

On talent, I’d certainly think he would be on the inside track, but who do you think doesn’t make it as a result? Humphrey, Peters, Smith, Averett, Young, Clark, Elliott, Levine, Stephens, and Wade are all seemingly locks, or at worst, *well* ahead of Washington. I’d guess there’s probably only room for one (at most) of Richards/Stone/Marshall/Washington and Richards has a big leg up with his ST play.

Of course, injuries happen, and you can’t count on any of Tavon, Elliott, or Jimmy in particular to make it to the start of the season healthy. But I honestly think that’s his only path to the roster, and even then it’s an uphill battle. Not knocking him at all, the kid can play and I think if we don’t try to stash him on IR he’ll be on an NFL roster this year. I’m just not sure that’s here, given the depth we have.

I don't really think it's a lock Levine makes the roster. If Washington shows enough to make cutting him undesirable I could definitely see them opting to keep him over Levine (same goes for a guy like Stone).

QDR, while he does have an impressive resumé, he is very short (5' 8"), and we just drafted two D-backs. You certainly could be right, but I picked Tony Poljan [6' 7" - 251 lbs. - TE - CMU (3) + Virginia (4th)] because he seems to be what we need as a 3rd TE and we didn't draft one.
