2012 Drafted Cornhuskers NFL signing thread.

[knapplc]

Four-year contract, $2.491 million.

 

Not bad. Texans fans are pretty excited about it, they're calling Crick a "steal" in the fourth. They could be very, very pleased with him.

Nice chunk of change, hope he does well for them.

Not a bad payday for a small town Nebraska kid.

#Packers cut T Chris Campbell, sign 5 tryout players: T Shea Allard, WR Jarrett Boykin, G Grant Cook, WR Curenski Gilleylen, CB Otis Merrill

 

 

A little surprised about this, but happy that Cure is getting a shot. Good luck, Gilleylen!

 

 

 

EDIT - don't forget about THIS "INCIDENT" with Gilleylen. Dude's heart has been in the right place.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT #2:

There were 29 tryout players that participated in the Packers’ rookie camp. Here is a breakdown of the five tryout players that signed:

 

Gilleylen (5-11, 213): He played in 30 games with two starts at Nebraska. He was limited to just eight games in 2010 and 2011.

 

That's ^^^ a badly chopped-up quote from HERE

Good for him got with a good team to.

Watch gilleylen will end up making the team and doing decent. Kind of like Chris Brooks. Didn't do much around here due to little playing time and then end up doing good in the NFL.

It's a really good fit for both parties. It'll be a good opportunity for Crick. Wade Phillips turned that defense around in a hurry.

Hmmm, I am shocked that Texas fans aren't going berzerk because he is from NU.

 

Good luck to all of them.

ditto that. Texas fans aren't as obsessed with Nebraska as Nebraska fans seem to be with Texas. Furthermore... it's a completely different team. It'd be like us saying that we don't want recruits from Texas because we dislike one of the state's teams.

[IvabigN]

yes "the Cricket" and the Cure along with Phonzie will be great additions for their teams

That was my initial thought too! However, college is college. Congrats to both those boys! It will be fun watching them on Sundays!

[lo country]

I like the part where he is described as "freakishly athletic". Sadly, another position switch, get lost, freakishly athletic kind of player.

 

Hope it works out for him.

Oh I'm loving that the texans finally got a Husker. Now I can actually root for them.

[okaive]

Remember last year when talks of Dallas might be picking up a Husker (can't remember who it was), but the fans were going nuts and not wanting a Husker in the state of Texas, or just Dallas (can't remember which on that one either). Just thought they would be the same as for any team in Texas.
