Signing undrafted free agents in the NFL is a tricky proposition. 2026 UDFA NFL contracts in the NFC West were over $2.6 million in guaranteed money. Once the draft is over, teams can go and sign college players who were undrafted, and the enticement of money talks. NFL teams just spent $10.6 million on players not drafted. It is worth noting that even though undrafted free agents can sign a three-year contract for just over $3 million, very little of that contract is guaranteed. In fact, many players have nothing guaranteed or paltry amounts of five to twenty thousand dollars guaranteed.
Some teams, like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, invested a guaranteed $916,000 on just five players, while others, like the Miami Dolphins, spent $180,000 on just two players.
Edge Rusher Logan Fano from Utah, earned the most of all UDFA’s with a guaranteed $310,000 from the Cleveland Browns.
We take a look at how each team spent on free agents in the NFC West, following our series on the NFC East, NFC North, AFC East, AFC North, AFC West, and AFC South.
