New Website!

I will be shorty joining up with the better maintained outfit at WVUPros. I'll begin by editing and moving some of the articles already contained on this site. Afterwards, I will continue writing for them, focusing on non-contemporary drafted/undrafted players. You should check out the WVUPros' Facebook Page and Twitter Account.

2006 Undrafted Players

An updated version of this blog post is available at WVUPros.com

Mike Lorello: The Pittsburgh Steelers picked up undrafted safety Lorello. Lorello signed with the Steelers, passing up other options such as the Bears. He was signed, released, and resigned multiple times while playing on the practice squad. Finally, in September of 2007, he was released for the last time after an injury.

Anthony Mims: The Chargers picked up Mims, a cornerback, after the draft. He was released before the season even began. It doesn't look as if he tried to continue his career elsewhere.

Jahmile Addae: The Buccaneers first signed Addae but he was shortly cut. Afterward he received interest from the Titans but ultimitly signed with the Colts.

During summer training camp, Addae collapsed while practicing and was rushed to the hospital. Unfortunately, his career was ended when he found out he had an enlarged heart. Addae currently lives in his hometown in Florida, teaching and coaching at his high school Alma mater.

2006 NFL Draftees

An updated version of this blog post is available at WVUPros.com

Alton "Dee" McCann was the only 2006 draftee. He was drafted by the lions in the sixth round (179th overall). Unfortunately for McCann, his career never made it off the ground. It looks like he spent his 2006 season on the Lions practice squad and then attempted to make the Vikings in 2007. In Minnesota he was released from the practice squad before the beginning of the season, never to be heard of again. At least by me.
