Alex Bayer is the only member of last year's MAC Champions to have a shot at a UDFA slot in an NFL training camp. I think there seems to be some idea that he has a shot....it is certainly a long shot, but you never know. Make it or not, he's a Falcon Forever.
He led the Rams with 7 targets, 5 catches and and 71 yards. He had a 42-yard reception (game long for the Rams) and a 14.2 average, all of which is very good stuff and typical of what we saw of him for BG.
Now, the caveat here is that this was the first pre-season game. You face worse players as the game goes on. He caught one pass in the 2Q, one in the third (both from SMU rookie Garrett Gilbert) and then 3 in the 4th from Austin Davis.
Bayer is listed in a group of 3 among the TEs on the Ram depth chart, behnd the 1-2-3 strings. Anyway, bears watching, and we are proud of him no matter what.
