As in UDFAs? or RBs that weren't drafted in our individual rookie drafts?

One that fits both criteria for me, is Josh Adams. He's a talented back that can be used in all situations. Also, the Eagles love RBBCs and their current depth chart doesn't have so much talent, that carving out a role would be insurmountable.

The UDFA RBs this year seem like slim pickings. Most interesting guy I got watch-listed is A. Wadley.

Adams and Wadley as mentioned above.
There are a few that I'm really going to watch close, as I think they're good RB's but they're buried on their depth chart:
Ryan Nall, CHI
Phillip Lindsay, DEN
Demario Richard, ATL
Roc Thomas, MIN
Martez Carter, WAS

I also saw things I liked about Kamryn Pettway and Jarvion Franklin.

The only one I'd be interested in, if I was in a 16-team or 32-team league, would be Chris Warren on the Raiders.

Josh Adams is a total bum. Definition of JAG. He had Quenton Nelson and Glinch blocking for him, and still couldn't put up tape.

I came here to say this. The UDFA pool is very shallow this year. I don't see anyone else I'd want rather than Warren because of situation alone. I don't think he'll ever be a top player in this league, but I'd be willing to bet that you can get this guy in the 4th round of rookie drafts, or even after that on waivers, and trade him away at some point for a 2nd rounder or even a 1st to a desperate owner.

I probably am coming off as a homer, but Roc Thomas isn’t in a terrible situation. He is listed as 4th on the RB depth chart, but nobody is scared of #3 Mack Brown. And with Cook coming off knee surgery, it’s certainly plausible that Thomas starts the season as the backup to Latavius Murray. And with Murray a FA next year (I believe), it’s also plausible that Thomas could Cook’s backup for the short term. I could see Thomas filling a McKinnon-type role in this offense.
