People that get drafted usually make it to the team, though they may not play much, and if they don't, may not make the team the second year. People that get signed as an un-drafted free agent sometimes make the team, but are much less likely to. People that get invited to a mini-camp basically have a couple days to impress the coaches enough to get upgraded to UFA, so their odds are very long indeed. Maybe one in twenty mini-camp invitees ends up with a UFA contract, but even then, they still face long odds to make the team. Blankenship was a case in point - he did get a UFA contract from his mini-camp invite, but didn't make the team.
Just because the odds are long doesn't mean he shouldn't give it his best shot. I am glad Dorian is getting a shot, and I hope he does well.
