Quite the long list. If we can pull 3+ players that serve as depth anf can play special teams, and at least 1 #3 or better WR, paired with our draft, I'll bump a B/B+ draft grade to an A.

[LBC mike]

knew the UDFA list was going to be big. glad we have Farmer

[D Bone]

I really like the Connor Shaw signing. Those of you in the Tavern this morning know I'm diggin' this signing.

[Bummie]

Kenny G to Minnesota, for those who care. Good for him for being recognized.

[Harry Buffalo]

Updated front page with more confirmed signing and camp invites.

[Hunt Daddy]

Isaiah Crowell was so beast at Georgia. Great signing.

[utzie]

Greg Blair, ILB out of Cincinnati is a pretty solid player. Great in the run game but may struggle in pass coverage in the NFL. Watched him for 3 years at UC and he is definitely worth the sign. I hope he makes the team!

Damn... quite a list... at least quantity-wise.

Did we add this many this fast last year? or ever?

we added 21 one year need lots of bodies for camp, should send notice to the bottom 20 to put up or get out

I'm liking what I see from the highlights on Snead and Jones.

[thenew23]

As of right now, we only have 9 open spots for our training camp roster of 90. After the draft, we had 81 players on our roster, and brought in 26 (unofficially) UDFAs. I know those guys are all allowed to go to rookie camp on an invitee basis, but after that we need to get down to 90. Currently, we have 107... Making cuts before camp even opens up... interesting to see which of these guys make it.

I like... Shaw QB, Crowell RB, Jones WR, Snead WR, and Hendricks S. Not sure about many of the others

[Tour2ma]

Virtually nothing on Agnew (FB) except a couple S. Ill game Highlight reels... he's in about 3 plays. Drill times say not very fast, but pretty agile.

A lot of notes on Dima, but no footage I could find...

Draft Scout Anthony Dima News

05/07/14 - 2014 NFL Draft: 126 FBS programs, 126 possible UDFAs: MASSACHUSETTS: OT Anthony Dima (6-6, 290, 5.23)...A three-year starter at left tackle, Dima looks the part with the strength to hold up in the run game, just needs to tweak a few hiccups in pass protection. - Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout.com

12/16/13 - 2013 ALL-MAC THIRD TEAM: Offensive Lineman - Anthony Dima, UMass...A native of Centereach, N.Y., Dima finished his making 31 starts in 34 career games for the Minutemen including 11 starts in 2013. The mainstay at left tackle this year helped UMass dramatically improve its pass protection allowing just 16 sacks compared to 32 sacks in 2012. The Minutemen were tied for fifth in the league for fewest sacks allowed in 2013.

Dima also helped the offense's run game improve in year two at the Football Bowl Subdivision. UMass rushed for over 1,500 yards on the ground averaging 125.2 yards per game in 2013 compared to 1,075 yards rushing and an 89.6 yard per game average in 2012. - UMass football

07/17/13 - 2013 OUTLAND TROPHY WATCH LIST: Anthony Dima, Massachusetts, OT...Dima is one of three players from the Mid-American Conference to be named to the Outland Trophy Watch List. Toledo center Zac Kerin and Kent State defensive tackle Roosevelt Nix were also members of the watch list. The 6-foot-7, 302 pound native of Centereach, N.Y., was named earlier to Phil Steele's Preseason All Mid-American Conference Team this summer.

The versatile lineman enters 2013 as a two-year starter after transferring to UMass from Hofstra following his true freshman year where he redshirted with the Pride. He will be charged this year with leading a mostly young offensive line which lost three starters from last year in Stephan Milhim, Quinton Sales, and Nick Speller. All told, Dima has played in 23 career games making 20 starts. He missed the first two games of 2012 due to a preseason injury, but returned to play in every remaining game of the season but one.

Dima has been a pivotal part of the Minutemen's run game with Jonathan Hernandez rushing for over 1,000 yards in 2011. Last season, Dima helped open holes for Michael Cox who was drafted by the New York Giants following his one year with UMass. Prior to college, Dima played football and was a member of the track & field team at Centereach High School where he was named to All-Suffolk County and all-league teams as a senior. - UMass football
