The most important work will happen in training camp and the preseason games. That means battles will begin for players, especially UDFA rookies and fringe players. They go in hoping that good enough play will earn them a spot based on the meritocracy of the NFL. That’s the story, at least. And like with so many stories, there is a whole lot of myth involved.

They certainly got some very encouraging players, along with some flyers that might just pay off.
