Six former Golden Bears found themselves in a unique situation following the 2009 NFL Draft. Instead of selling themselves to teams, like they'd done leading up to this past weekend, some of those teams were trying to sell the players on their organizations. All but one of the undrafted Cal players have already signed with NFL teams. The lone holdout is fielding interest from at least three teams at the time of this writing. While speaking with Tony Fleming, agent for Worrell Williams, he told me that three teams that utilize the 3-4 defense have shown interest in signing the inside linebacker.
Fleming told me that they may know where Williams is heading by Tuesday. Williams finished his Cal career with 36 starts and 246 tackles that ranks as 11th all-time. In 2008, he had 64 tackles (25 solo), five tackles-for-loss, and one sack. Will Ta'ufo'ou was signed by the Chicago Bears. One of the Bears' unsung heroes over the last two years, he helped pave the way for two 1,500-plus yard rushers during his career. An ultimate team player, he'll be expected to bring his toughness to the NFL on special teams.
