I'm surprised Ott or Kulick didn't get picked up.

I wonder how much James Butler hurt his NFL career by transferring to Iowa? I thought they said he might have been a late round draft pick if he would of gone pro from Nevada.

No Bo Bower?

Sean Welsh signed with Redskins not tryout.
Surprised Kluver Kulick didn’t get any sort of a shot.
Wish Ott would get just 1 shot. Think he could stick a few years if he did

Bazata, Ott, and Bower don't even get a tryout? Hope that changes...

Slightly off topic, but ISU's QB/LB Joel Lanning ended up with the Cowboys. I wonder if they are going to give him a try at TE.

Butler's serious injury that cost him a number of games make NFL teams take a cautious approach to him. If he can pass a physical I think teams will take a second look at him.

In which round did Derrick Willies get drafted?

I’ve been wondering the same thing.

In which round did Derrick Willies get drafted?

the 8th round for Willies
Was just thinking, what about Kulick and Bazata. Ott really does need just one shot for effs sake!

This was a very, very frustrating year for him. He so much wanted to play for Iowa, beginning with his senior year of high school. Update: Butler has a tryout with the Raiders later this week.

I think Butler should have gone for the medical redshirt and come back this year. Hope he makes a team though
