Four University of Hawai'i players who were not among the 252 players selected this weekend in the NFL draft signed free-agent contract with teams today.

The four were:

• Wide receiver Davone Bess, who signed with the Miami Dolphins;

• Wide receiver Jason Rivers, who signed with the Tennessee Titans;

• Wide receiver Ryan Grice-Mullins, who signed with the Houston Texans;

• Offensive lineman Hercules Satele, who signed with the Arizona Cardinals.

Bess will join a pair of former Warrior players with the Dolphins.

Samson Satele was drafted in the second round and became the team's starting center. Running back Reagan Mauia was a sixth-round pick and started.

Last year, the Dolphins drafted Ohio State receiver/kick returner Ted Ginn Jr. with their No. 1 pick.
