Walker takes the South Shore Line
Posted by on Tuesday, May 1, 2007 at 1:47 am

Former Notre Dame runningback Darius Walker — who declared for the NFL a year early, then went undrafted this past weekend (oops!) — has been signed as a free agent by Da Bears. (Hat tip: Emily.)

The Blue-Gray Sky has a complete rundown of which Notre Dame players went where, drafted and undrafted alike. There’s also a lengthy post about Brady Quinn’s precipitous drop in the draft. Among other things, it strikes me that Charlie Weis is really putting his reputation on the line for Quinn — well beyond what a coach would naturally feel obligated to do for an ex-player, I think — and if Quinn flops in the NFL (not that I’m predicting that), Weis’s prediction that he’d be the next Tom Brady or Peyton Manning is going to come back to haunt him, chipping away at the “genius” label. Just saying.

    What about Rhema McKnight to the Saints? No love?

    The Saints are going to be nasty next season.

    I think the “genius label” is starting to fade enough as it is…
