So guys really do turn down being drafted by a team and say "I've already signed with ______?"


I'm saying the teams convince the kids to sign as an UFA telling them they know they won't get drafted. Pray on their desperation.

1. It is against the rules for them to sign as an UDFA before the draft is over.
2. Even if they did sign or orallly agreed to terms before the draft is over, if they wind up getting drafted by anyone, the UDFA agreement would be null & void.

So that would be a pretty stupid "preying on" strategy by the teams.

I don't have any sympathy for Shep anymore after all his antics. If he was half as good as the Rantards think he is, he would have seen the field more. He can't catch, can't break tackles, and runs a 4.5.
