Hopson is a freaking headcase. I want no part of him. Lighty on the otherhand is winner with limited physical ability. Which is why they didn't get drafted.
I just scoured as many sources as I could easily find (about 6), and these are the guys who people listed:
Ben Hansbrough
Billy White
Brad Wanamaker
David Lighty
Demetri McCamey
Diante Garrett
Giorgi Shermandi
Greedy Peterson
Greg Smith
Jacob Pullen
Jamie Skeen
Jamine Peterson
Jereme Richmond
Julyan Stone
Kevin Anderson
Malcolm Thomas
Matt Howard
Michael Dunigan
Mickey McConnell
Rick Jackson
Scotty Hopson
Talor Battle

That being said, the Jazz have so many young guys that I don't see them signing any undrafted rookies. If we had summer league, I'd fully expect some of those players to be on the Jazz team. But we don't even have that. :-(
A guy that is under the radar is Boise State's Lashard Anderson. He's a 6'1" 170 pound point guard. His numbers last year were 15.1ppg, 3.2 rebounds 4.7 assists 44% fg 31 %3 and 78.5 FT. I know he's worked out for the Wizards and with no point guard in the Xmas stocking, he might be worth a look.
Wanamaker, Skeen, Hansborough. Older college kids, all can shoot the three, not a lot of room to grow but able to play a few minutes every 6 or 7th game. Will be good practice kids and team guys.
But the Jazz are going to get vetrans to fill this roster out, they don't want to create a culture of losing (hard to do if you have both Harris and Big Al) so they get a couple of older guys who have been on winning teams. I just hope it works out better than the Raja experiment.
