In 2017 of players that contributed at least 40% of their teams plays UDFA's were higher than the 5-7 rounds combined and only trailed behind the 1st round. Most rosters are made up anywhere between 10%-30% with UDFA's, I guess maybe your definition of "good" may be different but they aren't as big a long shot as people think.
By 'good' I'm talking high quality starter. I'd imagine a lot of UDFA's are special teams guys as they are so cheap. But, yeah...you might find a James Harrison every now and then.
You do bring up an interesting point with the percentages. I wonder how many percent of our roster is UDFA's?
Erickson is one. Hopkins. Redmond. Am I missing any?
