So, my numbers were off. For players drafted in the first three rounds, the percentage is above 90% of making the initial roster. Rounds 4-5 are about 70%, whereas later rounds are around 30%. The 50% number I referred to must be for rounds 4-7.
The same site I got those numbers from say roughly 70% do not get a second contract.

Just out of curiosity, what is the % of draft picks getting to a second contract with the draft team or their second team?

Drafting Peyton Manning seems like a no brainer, how many here thought Antonie Bethea would play 10 years?

Turay imo, is a disappointment, not shocked. I didnt think Banogu would make the team his rookie year.

Jerry Hughes was a bust for the Colts. He made the Bills look likes geniuses.
With where he was drafted at there was no way Banogu wasn't going to make the team his rookie year. And if we're being honest where he was drafted is probably the main reason why he's still on the team.

Jerry Hughes had a better fit there playing as OLB. He could’ve done the same here when we made the switch with pagano but he never got the chance.

Another surprise: Texans are releasing veteran running back Marlon Mack, per source.
Mack was released, then signed to the Texans practice squad, then cut from the practice squad. What is up with Mack, obviously there is something wrong, guy was too good to not even be able to make a teams practice squad!

Would you rather have Mack or Lindsey on the practice squad? I say Mack.

Lindsay is better than Mack now.

Seems like a good dude and he could have been more of a dick about his situation last year.

I just think the Achilles injury took his burst away. He didn’t look any different to me than Jackson, who the Colts seem to be weirdly in love with.

Lindsay is better than both of them.

Special Teams matters in depth players.
