There are quite a few players that went undrafted and would be available for cheap.
Personally, I hope the Raptors can bring in:
Juan Jose Barea, PG, 6-0, Age: 21 - averaged 21pt-8ast-4rb a game at Northeastern - pass-first PG and the best player in Portsmorth Tournament (Senior ONLY draft camp)
Justin Williams, PF, 6-9, Age: 22 - averaged 10pt-10rb-5blks a game - 2nd leader shot blocker in NCAA, he did not only block shots, but he also blocked the balls to his teammates instead of the 3rd row. - an offensive liability
Please add your suggestions.

based on our needs, i also like Mike Gansey (SG) http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=598Last I heard, the Raptors brass really liked what Gansey brought to the table...reminds me of a bryce drew or jon barry type player. smart basketball players who can shoot and will do the little things. Nice backup SG, i think. And as a backup center - Kevin Pittsnoggle??? http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=393

Mike Gansey is already signed by Miami Heat for 2 years rookie contract, that's why I didn't mention him. He could be a decent player off the bench as our backup SG for cheap. Kevin Pittsnoggle could be the new Bonner shooting jumpers and 3s, but I read reports about him being lazy and out-of-shape. That's kinda scare me away from him. He will play for Miami Heat SL team along with Mike Gansey except he did not get a contract offer though.

All the players mentioned in this post have little to no chance of being a Raptor. The summer league roster has already been set and they have signed a few undrafted players to play on that team. You can check out the roster here: http://www.nba.com/raptors/news/pressrelease_summerL_063006.html

I know the Summer League Roster. Players playing on other team's SL can also be signed. :wink: Anyway, I don't like the non-raptors players on our summer league roster though, only Justin Gray has a shot while the two Canadians have a slim shot of making the team. I guess it's more for giving some experiences to our players than to looking at potential FA signing. I really hoped they invited some of the more well-known undrafted FAs.
