Barring a complete meltdown, Turay isn’t going anywhere They’re very high on him and pleased what he’s done thus far Now that we’re nearing Tyquan coming back, they’re raving about him now too. Defensive part of the 2018 draft is starting to shape up pretty well 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I am disappointed by this. I thought he showed potential. He needed to work with a coach, but he had the ability to always be near the ball. He'll land somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rockywoj Posted October 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2018 The disappointing thing to me is that the NFL has failed to adequately increase roster size, in both game day roster and total roster. A team shouldn’t have to keep “waiving” guys in order to bring up a player for a needed position due to injury. 11 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they cant increase the roster size they could at least increase the players dressed for the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case there could be a significant advantage to one team in games such as Colts vs. the Patriots where the Pats could have had upwards of 10 more players dressed than the Colts. I think you’d have to increase both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry..... But Skai Moore was not an early round draft pick. In fact, he wasn't drafted AT ALL. Skai Moore was an UNDRAFTED FREE AGENT. And odds are Ballard will reclaim him back for the PS as he has done with guys like Swoope and Allie-Cos and some WR's and others. So, Ballard hasn't eaten anything.... The one gamble he made was with Basham. Ballard gambled and lost. But that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basham was already a gamble when they spent a third-round pick on him and thought they could coach him up. The Jets just saw a shiny object (Wooohooo! Look!...a free 3rd rounder!) and picked it up. Now watch him get five sacks tomorrow, and I'll be frying up a batch of crow for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a move solely based on needing a d'linemen active tomorrow. It also means Leonard will be back. Moore will land somewhere - very likely back on the Colts practice squad next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head, I’d say game day rosters should be 50 and the overall roster should be 60 ... and just do away with the practice squad altogether.

I can agree with the roster addition but not the doing away with the practice squad. The practice squad holds 320 players league wide who are in training to become NFL players. These are mostly made up of good college players who are skilled enough to make the squads. There is also some walk ons that may make it. Those players also practice with the regular players with the effort to make all of them better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practice Squad isn't just a roster stash (though it's used as that). These guys play an important role in weekly preparation.

He played the 4-3 in college and Ballard knew he'd be switching to a 4-3 this year. You're the first person I've seen say drafting Basham was a gamble. I think it was a gamble to cut him and hope to re-acquire him. Pass rushers are a precious commodity. But Ballard knows this. He was willing to lose Basham if need be. Ballard gambled and lost.... tough business.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I agree, with all the new concussion protocols and not bringing guys back until they are 100% versus playing injured I think rosters need to be expanded to 60. In addition, these guys bouncing around the league like Pimpkins recently is just insane and frankly unfair and unnecessary. In the next CBA, the league and players need to fix this because it's crazy. All the rosters moves are insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is why I say just incorporate the list into the normal roster of 60, doing away with the special designation of “practice squad”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
