No players taken in NFL's supplemental draft

 

None of the four eligible players were taken in the NFL's supplemental draft Thursday.

League spokesman Michael Signora says in an email that all four players -- New Mexico receiver Chase Clayton, North Carolina linebacker Darius Lipford, Virginia-Lynchburg defensive tackle LaKendrick Ross and SMU running back Traylon Shead -- went undrafted and are now free agents.

The supplemental draft allows qualified underclassmen who did not request early entry into the regular draft to have a chance at entering the NFL. Teams submit picks and are awarded players if their bid -- for which round they would take that player -- is highest. Teams then lose the corresponding pick in next year's draft.
