So do we expect the new draft picks to be there even though they don't have contracts yet? They could at least be there to learn.

Vilma going to Tulane?

Did the U stop allowing NFL guys to come work out in the offseason there?

I thought that was a big thing for U guys?

No I get that I was just wondering if going back to Miami for offseason workouts is no longer a big thing for U guys in general

Ingram tweeted something earlier about heading to New Orleans, so it looks like he might be there. Since this is unofficial and not affiliated with the coaching staff or front office, I don't see how anyone could stop the rookies.

the Louisville CB is going to participate, as well as heath evans and danny clark, 2 FA's.


Shanle said he will not because he isnt protected from injury, being a FA

Rookies routinely participate in OTAs before they have official contracts. I think there is an unwritten rule (hell it could be a written rule) that if a rookie not under contract gets hurt at an OTA then he gets slotted salary based on where he was picked in the draft.

I think Chad Jones was in this situation last year.

Im sure Ingram will be there. Hes been in nola since the draft ended and for awhile before the draft. He works out in the same place as Porter and a few others.
