Warren Sapp was undrafted.

Sapp was drafted in the first round of the 1995 NFL Draft going #12 overall.

For most of us, that would be a great job, but he’s likely to have it for a short period. I doubt he’ll be set for life.

If he does not blow it on broads and bling he can set himself up by putting money down on well located multi-family housing. He can have it managed for a fee and expect a reasonable income and tax benefits from depreciation allowance; if things go south for him he always has a place to move in to.

The big bucks players should do the same, but with well located apartment buildings.

Full disclosure: Yes, I am a licensed real estate broker.

He’s not a long term planner. Is he going to be in the NFL forever? Probably a few years, maybe ten tops.

He's a third string free agent. Even assuming he doesn't get injured the average career for a defensive lineman is 3.5 years. He'll be looking for a real job before then.

He was an undrafted rookie free agent and he beat out Sam. That tells you how impressed the Rams were with Sam.

The Rams gave Sam a fair opportunity to make the team. He couldn't. Sam has nobody to blame but himself for that.

That is a symbol meaning “I can’t read cursive”.
