Undrafted free agent rookies signed

by Brad Wells on Apr 30, 2007 3:56 PM EDT in Colts News

Free agent rookies are often just as important, and sometimes more important, than the draft itself or some of the big name free agents. Dominic Rhodes was a free agent rookie in 2001. Gary Brackett was one in 2003. This year, the Colts have signed these guys so far:

Clifton Dawson, RB, Harvard
KaMichael Hall, LB, Georgia Tech
Brandon Archer, LB, Kansas State
Ramel Meekins, DT, Rutgers
Ramon Guzman, OLB, Buffalo
Johnny Harline, TE, BYU

KaMichael Hall was someone I expected the Colts to draft in my mock draft. Glad to see he got a contract and will get a chance to make the team. Clifton Dawson has all the right tools to be a RB for the Colts, but he played for Harvard (which means he didn't play REAL football in college). Johnny Harline was the TE for BYU that punked Oregon in the Vegas Bowl.

Update [2007-4-30 16:47:9 by BigBlueShoe]:Texas A&M SS Melvin Bullitt was signed today as well.

Justin Harrell

Guys sorry Harrell didn't make it to Indy. You're fans would have given him more love than Green Bay did for sure. That was low class in my eyes, considering that the last #92 they had that played for UT put them back on the map. Favre gets most of the credit but Reggie started the ball rolling. You guys still had a solid draft though. Good luck!

Thx VOLPIMP

The Colts were hoping Meachum would fall to them, but sadly he didn't. Best of luck. UT has a knack for giving us players that help win Championships. :)

Harline is a great pickup

dude was Beck's #1 target at BYU. I still cant for the life of me understand not getting Darius Walker? To me he is tailor made for this offense.

Meachem

Big Blue, Meachem would have been a great fit, you guys did good with Gonzalez though. Got a kid you can look for in a few years at QB, I think his pic is still up at Voluminous blog with Harrell, he is up and coming. You excellent Colt fans check him out and see what you think!
