Does anyone know what a 7th rounder gets paid?  Its always seem weird that we pay a lot for some of these undrafted.

Our last pick will get a 4 year deal worth $2.7 million.

Wow, so there is quite a difference between the two

but  with the  draft  picks  the  bonus  is  only paid  till they make the  team.if a udfa  makes the team  he  will get a contract  similiar to a 7th rounder

Vikings UDFA CB Nevelle Clarke was a combine invite and borderline draftable by some outlets. 6-1, 190 with long arms. Basically UDFA Cam Dantzler. Length, excels at press man, needs to add weight.

& then there were 3... (openings) B)
Vikings officially announce signings of 12 Undrafted Free AgentsThe Undrafted Free Agent signing frenzy for the Minnesota Vikings has officially come to an end, as they have officially announced the signings of 12 UDFAs. They’re the same 12 names that we have on our Undrafted Free Agent tracker, but here is the full list again.

• Brady Aiello, OL, Oregon
• Jake Bargas, TE, North Carolina
• Dan Chisena, WR, Penn State
• Nevelle Clarke, CB, Central Florida
• Quartney Davis, WR, Texas A&M
• Myles Dorn, CB, North Carolina
• Jordan Fehr, LB, Appalachian State
• Nakia Griffin-Stewart, TE, Pittsburgh
• Tyler Higby, OL, Michigan State
• Jake Lacina, OL, Augustana
• Blake Lynch, LB, Baylor
• David Moa, DT, Boise State

Since people have asked, Jake Lacina is, in fact, the son of former NFL offensive lineman Corbin Lacina, who played for the Vikings from 1999-2002. He was also the Rimington Award winner at the Division II level in 2019, an award that is given to the top center at each level of college football. Garrett Bradbury and Pat Elflein each won the same award at the Division I level.
With these 12 signings, coupled with the 15 players that the Vikings drafted over the course of the weekend, the team now has 87 players on the 90-man roster. Usually the team brings in some guys from rookie tryout sessions, but with things the way they are at the present time we can’t assume that anything like that is going to be happening anytime soon.

#Vikings undrafted free agent Nevelle Clarke is from Miami. He says he doesn't know Miami native Dalvin Cook personally but knows a lot of guys who do.

I can't even.

This was a very deep WR class, and that is partially why Q. Davis went undrafted. He is a good route runner if you can give him a clean release by lining him up off the line in the slot. He is labeled a slot receiver NOT because he is small. He just needs a clean release to be productive. His production at Texas A&M didn't measure up to all the physical tools he has to work with. He looked good at the senior bowl. He has the ability to decelerate quickly, turn smoothly and he can cut sharply for a big receiver. Not a great natural hands catcher but still a very good prospect. I like what I see on tape and I think his best football is still ahead of him. Bleacher report lists Davis as one of their top 8 rookie free agents.

Carl is definitely a guy who really 'knowles' what he's talking about.

p.s. Yeah, this is going to take me awhile to get out of my system.
