  • Jordan Smallwood: Waived by 49ers

    Smallwood was waived by San Francisco on Monday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Smallwood signed a reserve/future contract with the 49ers in January after spending time on the Chiefs' practice squad during the season. The 24-year-old went undrafted out of Oklahoma in 2018 and will look to latch on elsewhere.

  • Steven Dunbar WR | DEN

    Steven Dunbar: Let go by 49ers

    Dunbar was waived by the 49ers on Monday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Dunbar, who went undrafted out of Houston in 2018, was active for the 49ers' season finale but did not record an offensive statistic. The 23-year-old will now search for a depth role elsewhere in the league.

  • Tyre Brady WR | JAC

    Jaguars' Tyre Brady: Signing with Jags

    Jacksonville is expected to sign Brady as an undrafted free agent.

    After all seven rounds of the draft had passed, Brady found himself still without a team so he'll join the Jaguars as an undrafted free agent. Jacksonville is looking for weapons to complement its passing attack, but the Marshall product still has his work cut out for him to secure a spot on the roster.

  • Olamide Zaccheaus: Set to join Atlanta

    The Falcons are expected to sign Zaccheaus as an undrafted free agent, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The diminutive receiver had an oustanding campaign in 2018, catching 93 passes for 1,058 yards and nine touchdowns in 13 games. Even though Zaccheaus is listed at 5-foot-9, he never missed a game in his four-year college career for Virginia. Zaccheaus projects as a possible backup in the NFL with special teams potential.

  • Cody Thompson: Agrees to terms with Kansas City

    The Chiefs are expected to sign Thompson as an undrafted free agent, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Thompson played a total of five years with Toledo, where he racked up 48 catches for 647 yards and 10 touchdowns last season. Even though he suffered a broken fibula in 2017, durability shouldn't be a huge concern as he played in a total of 50 games in his college career. He will face an uphill battle trying to nail down a roster spot in 2019.

  • Jazz Ferguson WR | SEA

    Jazz Ferguson: Joining Seattle

    The Seahawks are expected to sign Ferguson as an undrafted free agent, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    The Northwestern State product ran a solid 4.45 40-yard dash at the combine, but went undrafted. Ferguson lit up the FCS last season, catching 66 passes for 1,117 yards and 13 touchdowns in 11 games. He projects as a depth wide receiver and contributor on special teams.

  • DaMarkus Lodge WR | CIN

    DaMarkus Lodge: Set to join Tampa Bay

    The Buccaneers are expected to sign Lodge as an undrafted free agent, Jordan Schultz of ESPN reports.

    Lodge was the third wheel of an Ole Miss offense that featured both A.J. Brown and DK Metcalf, who were both drafted in the first three rounds. Despite the lack of notoriety, Lodge caught 65 passes for 877 yards and four touchdowns last season. He will head to a receiving corps that features Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

  • Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Expected to sign with Saints

    New Orleans is expected to sign Humphrey to an undrafted free-agent contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.

    Humphrey is coming off of a quality season at Texas but his lackluster NFL Scouting Combine results hurt his stock. He made up for his lack of top-end speed with his height (6-foot-4), route running and catching ability, all of which are traits that could help him succeed in the NFL. He'll aim to contribute as a depth receiver and special teams player with the Saints in 2019.

  • Jalen Guyton WR | LV

    Jalen Guyton: To sign with Dallas

    Guyton, an undrafted free agent from North Texas, is expected to sign a contract with the Cowboys, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Guyton had hopes of being a mid-round draft pick before falling out of the draft entirely. Dallas has plenty of receiving talent but Guyton could carve out a role as a depth receiver and special teams contributor.

  • Vikings' Dillon Mitchell: Minnesota nabs in seventh round

    The Vikings selected Mitchell in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 239th overall.

    Mitchell (6-foot-1, 197 pounds) likely fell this far over concerns about his work ethic or "football character." His demonstrates itself in the production, as Mitchell won't turn 21 until mid-May yet over the last two years for Oregon turned 198 targets into 117 receptions for 1,701 yards and 14 touchdowns (59.1 percent catch rate, 8.6 YPT) in an offense that averaged under 8.0 yards per pass in that span. Mitchell is a slippery receiver who might play best in the slot, where in a best-case scenario he might eventually compare to someone like Tyler Boyd. At the combine he ran a 4.46-second 40 to go along with a 36.5-inch vertical and 122-inch broad jump. So long as he doesn't alienate Vikings coaches, Mitchell might pose a threat to Laquon Treadwell's tenuous role.
