Can’t believe LaColtan Bester hasn’t been picked up
Hopefully someone picks him up.
Texans got him
Really thought Damian would end up in Denver……you know. 🙂
What the…………..? Ohhhhhhhhhhh ok 😀
I really do not understand how Millard goes so late. It also appears to me that the OU coaches have really done an incredible job coaching this last year. Obviously we simply do not have NFL talent and yet we went 11-2 and beat Bamma.
H-back/FB typically don’t go very high, but his injury dropped him even further.
An even bigger steal than Colvin.
Considering how young this team is and no juniors left, there just weren’t many candidates for the NFL on this team.
Had Colvin, Millard, Nelson not been injured their stock would have been much greater.
Clay may not have been viewed as a draft pick, but I will take a solid, reliable player like him any day.
One thing to consider since I’m assuming most of us want to see Brennan succeed is that he could have a story like Arian foster. Undrafted, doubted because he’s not the fastest guy but intelligence can take you a long way also. Foster 4.68 at the combine.
Clay may not ever get the recognition he deserves, but his years as a Sooner show he is consistent and reliable.
Stats link shows it, including no fumbles in 46 career games.
Which of these free agent signings has the best chance to stick on and be successful?
Millard, Ikard, Finch
Extremely surprised that Ikard didn’t get drafted. Titans getting a heck of a player.

The picture of Millard is bad to the bone. Efficient blocker? That’s an understatement!
Indeed!
I saw some one call him a “devastating” blocker which is more accurate.
LMAO…. Is it true that not ONE Texas player got drafted? Is Jackson Jeffcoat still at Texas? LMAO
It’s twue, it’s twue!
Not one of all those *****.
Your comment made me look…at BON…and it is funnnneeee.
Millard to my 49ers. I’ll allow it.
Millard, what a great Sooner and person.

I’m guilty of taking Gabe Lynn for granted. Hope he has a great career.
