The NFL is made up of undrafted free agents

The NFL has always been known for the first-round picks and the big name guys but did you know the NFL is made up with 30 percent of undrafted free agents.

The NFL has 1,696 players and of those 1,696 almost 31 percent of them did not hear their names called in the NFL Draft. I love these numbers because I tell kids all the time that they can make it, and it does not matter if you were drafted. This year 22 draft picks have already been released.

So if you are told you are an undrafted guy that is good, because your percentage to make it is higher!!!
