In response to MrPhillie
No news, although I expect he will get a tryout from someone. This was definitely the wrong year to be an FCS player, as the cancellation of all the NFL pro days meant those players got very little direct exposure to NFL scouts and officials. Thus the NFL teams opted for the safety of players they already knew from multiple visits to all the FCS programs.
Over 40+ years, there has been an average of 18 FCS players drafted per year. This year there were six - an all-time low. The previous low, in 2003, was 12. Also last year about 200 FCS players got spots as undrafted free agents. This year, as of earlier today, the number was 65. It will rise but is unlikely to even get to 100.
