The 2026 NFL draft is complete, but teams will frantically fill out their roster spots in the immediate aftermath.
The undrafted free agency period moves fast, and several UCF players are expected to land deals — either guaranteed contracts or invitations to rookie minicamp — within several hours of Mr. Irrelevant’s announcement.
On Thursday night, Malachi Lawrence became just the fifth player in UCF history selected in the first round — its highest-ever defensive selection at 23rd overall to the Dallas Cowboys.
The list of pro hopefuls still awaiting the call include edge rusher Nyjalik Kelly, offensive tackle Paul Rubelt and safety Phillip Dunnam.
