Chicago drafted Harvey Unga. Dallas drafted Josh Price-Brent. Both in the 7th round.

Surprised by Unga for a couple of reasons.
Mike Martz doesn't typically utilise a full back as far as I remember and they're pretty set at RB so I don't see how they'll use him.
I'd heard that he could go as high as the 3rd round?

I read that many scouts thought he could be a tail back.. Bears isn't the best place for him, I would think... maybe he does something preseason, and someone offers a 5th for him at a later date..I was hoping for more... can't believe if he was in with the April class he would have fallen to the 6th.. maybe what ever he did in school ( and why e came out) has something to do with it?Donsmith753 said:

I don't think front offices are looking down on him because he got his girlfriend pregnant.
honestly , i haven't been following WHY he is in the supplemental draft... guess he's not that good of a prospect...

I think if he played one more year he may have had his tock jump a little. He's a bit slow but good hands. He definitely could develop into a serviceable back, but not sure fantasy wise if he'll ever be much.That being said I just picked him up in my ppr dynasty
Really wish it was a different team.

As officer Barbrady would say 'nothing to see people!' when it comes to Unga.
Bears is a weird spot for him, but he'll compete to be the 3rd RB with Bell and Wolfe.
He doesn't have the skill set to be a feature back. He's big and powerful when he gets a head of steam. However, he's lacks quick initial burst and loses most of his momentum when asked to change direction (even a little bit). he's not creative or elusive in the open field either.
I see him as a pass catching fullback with limited upside. I like Lions RB/FB Jerome Felton more than I do Unga.

like Cecil said, the upside for Unga is very limited. But if the Martz system sticks around in Chicago for a few years (and that's a big IF), then you have to think a guy with pass catching skills like Unga makes sense in that offense. But for us fantasy guys, there just isn't much to hope for.

wasn't used much as a blocker at BYU so that is unknown. He's big, but blocking is all about 'want to' and technique.

Any word on whether Quintin Castille gets a training camp tryout? I remember watching him in his early days as a Cornhusker and thought he was pretty talented.
