Russell Shepard signed with the Eagles before the NFL draft ended
LSU wide receiver Russell Shepard recently signed a free agent contract, as many players do at the conclusion of the NFL draft. Shepard, however, didn't wait for the draft's seven rounds to conclude before signing his deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to a report Tuesday from James Haralson of LouisianaDaily.com.

How anyone cares anymore is beyond me.
If he can get tackled by his shoelaces in college, I can't wait to see what he can do in the NFL.

Listened to the Moscona interview yesterday. Shep talked like they already had packages in place for him. Came off mighty cocky for a UDFA. If the Eagles get in trouble for this, RS may not make it to camp.

It's pretty common practice for potential UDFAs. If a team drafts you the contract is invalid anyways.

What a jackass

Shepard tweeted with about 10 picks left in the draft that he was an Eagle.
I would guess it is a case of him and the Eagles agreeing to terms verbally assuming he does not get drafted in the last few picks. Then after the draft all the papers were signed.

Did Eagles cut corner on undrafted free agent?

According to LSU wide receiver Russell Shepard, he and the Eagles had reached an agreement even before the NFL Draft was over on Saturday, which is a violation of league rules.

It also has prompted an investigation by the league.
“Yes, we are looking into it to determine the facts,” league spokesman Greg Aiello told Tim McManus of Phillymag.com.

Sounds a bit sketchy but I would love to seem him have a solid NFL career.

I don't believe what Russell is saying. He may have been speaking with the Eagles but he didn't sign a contract prior to the drafts conclusion.

Russell Shepard should fire his agent for allowing him to sign early
