Notable Undrafted Free Agents:
Joe Lefeged, Rutgers 5112 208 4.43
Three-and-a-half year starter who plays well in the box with good read and react quickness. Appears to be a little tight in the hips but runs well and shows good range. Smart and aware in zone coverage. Sees the receiver and the ball. Good vision. Best in the short and medium areas of coverage. A liability playing a receiver deep down the field. Has the strength to reroute receivers off the line. Plays with good base and balance. Springing up on his toes. Used as a box run support player. He will need developmental work on coverage and safety positional skills. Will contribute on special teams coverage.
Jake Kirkpatrick, TCU 6017 301 5.32
Two-year starter. Plays in a spread offense where he shotgun snaps and does conventional center play. An intense wall off blocker who gets high and up on his toes at times. Rarely on the ground. Good angles to the second level cutoffs. Shorter arms than ideal. Good lateral quickness to pull. Cut on a defensive lineman. Gave Phil Taylor (Baylor) all he could handle early in the season. A zone blocking type center who takes the proper steps and runs a defender on contact. Can push the down lineman and create a seam. Offense is a series of quick passes so he doesn’t hold a block very long. Works to finish his blocks on the second level linebackers. Plays low and with leverage in the run game.
Darren Evans, Virginia Tech 6000 227 4.58
Junior entry. Rotated with Ryan Williams. A big back who runs with a high pad level. Zone type runner. Multiple offense - spread, one back, I-formation. A physical runner who will finish his runs. Average speed and quickness, but can make the first tackler miss with a shake and bake move. Has the quickness to bounce the ball outside. Above average leg strength and leg drive. Gives effort and is willing to block. Has the size to step up, block and anchor a blitzing linebacker. Fringe pro skills and some draftable qualities. Tore an ACL and missed the 2009 season.
