Just wanted to get a quick update on the list of newest Terps to join NFL teams.
Over the weekend, the five Terps drafted tied the most in the Ralph Friedgen-era:
Darrius Heyward-Bey (7th overall, Oakland Raiders), Kevin Barnes (80th overall, Washington Redskins), Moise Fokou (230th overall, Philadelphia Eagles), Jaimie Thomas (236th overall, Indianapolis Colts), Dan Gronkowski (255th overall, Detroit Lions)
Then comes word today of six undrafted free agent signings, via a university press release.
Linebacker Dave Philistin (Seattle Seahawks), wide receiver Isaiah Williams (Baltimore Ravens), center Edwin Williams (Washington Redskins), tackle Scott Burley (Redskins), linebacker Chase Bullock (Arizona Cardinals) and defensive tackle Jeremy Navarre (Jacksonville Jaguars) signed as undrafted free agent contracts.
Defensive tackle Dean Muhtadi and offensive tackle Dane Randolph have earned tryouts with the Green Bay Packers, according to the release.
That makes 13 Terps with some kind of pro plans. Several other Terps, including wide receiver Danny Oquendo and linebacker Trey Covington, will look to hook on with teams in the coming days.
More on some of the latest Terps to join teams, including Philistin and Williams, later.
