Armed with a 3.83 GPA, but sidelined by a thigh injury, Santa Rosa's Adam Froman was preparing for his post-football future a few months ago.
As Louisville's senior quarterback sat during the season's final five games, the interest he'd inspired from NFL scouts vanished. Later, 18 college quarterbacks attended the NFL Combine, but Froman's invitation, once thought to be a formality, never arrived....
Froman showed off all his tools at Louisville's pro day (last week). He displayed a better-than-average arm while completing 33 of 35 passes. In addition to his arm, there was his athleticism. He ran the 40-yard dash in an unofficial time of 4.55 seconds, which would have ranked third among quarterbacks at the NFL Combine. His times in the three-cone drill (6.6 seconds) and 20-yard shuttle (4.08) would have ranked first.
During his pro day, Froman had extensive sit-down interviews with the Falcons and Chiefs. He had informal meetings with scouts from seven other teams, including the 49ers, who invited him to their local pro day on April 20 at the team's facility in Santa Clara.

7th round-UDFA. Could get picked on a late-round flier by someone, but this draft is pretty deep.

Strange, spam normally hits new threads, not ones that are almost a week since last post.

Where do you see the excitement? This thread is still on page one and it was started almost 3 months ago.

what was the QB from Fresno that went undrafted? I think he has the most potential of the late rounders/udfa guys
