The draft may be over, but black college football players are still having an impact on several NFL teams through free agency. Here's a look at some players who inked deals behind the draft boards.

Congrats to these young men. Thumb Up

As undrafted rookie free agents, does anyone know what kind of salary range they'll be looking at?

VERNON BRYANT SIGNED BY RAMS

HAMPTON, Va. – The St. Louis Rams announced on Monday that they have signed Hampton University defensive tackle Vernon Bryant to a free-agent contract. Terms of the contract were not immediately available.Bryant, 6-foot-2, had 47 tackles last season as Hampton went 6-5, and finished his career as a Pirate with 100 tackles and 11 sacks. He recorded a career-high nine tackles – seven assisted – in the 2007 season finale, a 45-27 loss to Southern Illinois.

The Rams had the No. 2 overall pick in the draft on Saturday, taking University of Virginia defensive end Chris Long. Should Bryant make the team, he could find himself on the same defensive line as Long and 2007 first-round pick Adam Carriker.

The Courtland, Va. native is the second Pirate to enter the NFL. On Sunday, the Miami Dolphins selected defensive end Kendall Langford in the third round of the NFL Draft.

They have to make the team first. Then most are looking at the minimum...$250K

“[Colts coach] Tony Dungy called me at home before the draft and said that unfortunately he couldn’t draft me,” Simpson, who is the reigning Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference’s Offensive Player of the Year, said. “Seeing all these other running backs picked from Montana and everywhere else and guys you never even heard of [was hard]. I have to prove myself again as I have been doing for years and years, It’s nothing new.”
