Right. And I'm not asking to be argumentative I just honestly can't think of many guys on that side of the football. But I can list you a bunch of guys who we "stashed" just to go on and do nothing.
I don't think you can do it on defense, there are examples of practice squad guys doing well (Ron Leary or Miles Austin) but none on defense like you say. Maybe the closest thing could be UDFAs like Barry Church being special teams only for a year while they developed but that isn't "stashed", its a back of the roster guy.
Jay Ratliff was a 7th round pick who didn't play much as a rookie, but he still had one start with four tackles.
