If you buy something from an SB Nation link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

When the draft is over, the feeding frenzy for undrafted free agents begins. Reports will come out about players agreeing to terms with teams, tweets will link players to teams, and report contracts are signed. None of these reports are official until the team announces the signing in the next few days. Some players are invited to rookie minicamp, and it gets reported as a signing. Proceed with caution.

Agreed to terms:

The Washington Commanders have agreed to terms with 12 UDFAshttps://t.co/GXm79vY2fa
