For players looking for work, the day after the NFL draft can be a stressful game of musical chairs.
Two Arizona Wildcats are sitting pretty after a productive Sunday.
H-back Chris Gronkowski (Dallas Cowboys) and linebacker Vuna Tuihalamaka (Indianapolis Colts) both signed undrafted free agent contracts, and more UA players could be closer to deals.
Tuihalamaka was in especially high demand. His agent, Steve Caric, said the linebacker had "six or seven offers" to choose from.
"He was a little under the radar from NFL teams, being a juco guy who didn't play much his junior year," Caric said. "But the more teams saw him and watched his film, the more they fell in love with him."
The 6-foot-2-inch, 230-pound Tuihalamaka registered 68 tackles as a senior after having just 20 in 2008.
