Who are these guys you missed out on for lack of one more 7th. round pick?  Anybody can google names of stars who came out of the UDFA ranks.  Tony Romo, James Harrison, or even Tramon Williams down the food chain, yada, yada.  But when you consider how many flow through 90 man training camp rosters and then into practice squads and then out of the league vs. how many actually amount to anything, you're talking about losing out on a needle in the proverbial haystack.</blockquote>
