Because the NFL is populated by a bunch of monkey see monkey do idiots. All they know are little pieces of conventional wisdom without knowing the reason for those tidbits. "Defensive tackles can

I would argue that the professional soccer leagues all squander insane talent even more.     They have them playing soccer.

i think its 3 years. he gon get paid

I thought that people were saying last year that it was only 2 years for UDFA.

Whatever it is, I believe that it is a year less than late round draft picks. (Again, this is based on posts on this board that are loosely lodged in my memory.)

I can’t wait to start the #paypoona hashtag on Twitter

It's almost like the the majority of NFL teams employ simpletons that don't watch game tape or think critically in any way. And that the select few that aren't are far more consistently successful simply by taking advantage of the idiocy of their peers.

Don't know where else I'd put this - he has another Longhorn teammate:
 

Meh, others may disagree but I don’t claim AC as one of ours. I heard an interview with him last year I believe which started out with him saying he’s always ready to talk about “The U” football. Interviewer asked him about “his Texas boys” and AC responded “man, no comment.”

He was undrafted because of his size


Ya sorry tj but that’s simply not correct. Bevo is right. It was because of his measurables, not his body of work. It was discussed extensively prior to, during and after the draft not only on this board but by draft analysts generally. The nfl believes in measurables. What’s most shocking is that no one even took a late round flyer on him.

he was undrafted due to NFL not being impressed by his body of work at Texas.  Dont get me wrong.  I was not saying he was bad at all but he wasnt start in the NFL and make impact this fast good.

Poona Ford fooled the football world into thinking Todd Orlando was a good DC. The other DT to do that was Ed Oliver.
