Metro News: The Voice of West Virginia

Four former West Virginia players sign free agent deals after going undrafted in this weekend's NFL draft.

Wide Receiver Darius Reynaud signed a free agent deal with the Minnesota Vikings just minutes after the NFL draft concluded on Sunday. Reynaud will head off to a rookie mini-game later this week.  Also, senior defensive lineman Keilen Dykes signed a two year free agent deal with the Arizona Cardinals. Junior defensive lineman Johnny Dingle signed with the Kansas City Chiefs. Senior safety Eric Wicks will join the Seattle Seahawks. Morgantown native and University High School product Marc Magro signed his free agent deal with the St. Louis Rams where he hopes to be teammates this season with former WVU standout Marc Bulger. 

The deals for Reynaud, Dykes, Dingle, Wicks and Magro came after the seven round draft ended Sunday. Three WVU players were taken during the second day of the draft.  Running back Steve Slaton went to Houston in the 3rd round.   Fullback Owen Schmidt was selected by Seattle in the 5th and defensive back Ryan Mundy was taken by his hometown Steelers in the 6th round.
