Work harder on your hand/eye coordination, young man. Practice squad can be the building block towards a great career.

Rarely.

Rarely.

True but not 'never'.

Rarely.

Neither were ever in the PS

The only player I can recall that was successful as a starter after being on the PS is Leary

Yeah I was gonna say those guys are in their 40s now that’s how long it’s been.

That KINDA proves his point.

Practice squad has to be a tough pill to swallow for these proud athletes. I mean, all through their lives they were considered the best or one of the best on their junior high school, high school, and college teams.

All their lives they have received accolades, awards, and adoration from their schools and communities.

Now it's, "Listen, we really want you to stick around in case the three people that are better at your position go down in injury and there is nobody available on the waiver wire."

Just don’t go the Jameille Showers PS route.

@rambo2, did I not tell you he'd clear waivers and end up back on our PS if we wanted?

You must have. He is a good 7 for us.

Unlike an ol' Mac Donald, I'm keeping faith in these men.

Dwayne Harris was on the P.S. for a stretch and made a nice career in the NFL. Same with Amendola

Obviously, the odds are against most practice squad players or hell, even the guys 40-53 on the roster, for making a career out of the NFL. But his chances aren't zero.

 

[Mr_437]

Cool to have Crooper.
Still a couple more WRs I'd like to see on the PS.

 

[TexasHillbilly]

A lot can happen around the league. A few injuries and he can be poached if the need is there for another team. You just never know.

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

We need some speed on the outside to free up the middle so CD can get those 15-20 targets per game.
