Should at least bump the active rosters up to 60.

A. that would help to alleviate overpaid players

B. that would help to add more depth to rosters so you could sub more guys to keep certain positions "fresher", but also not be entirely f***ed in the event of worst-case scenarios.

They'll add another 3 unrestricted slots to the practice squad first. Easier to stash and lowball players that way.

thanks for posting...ISM heading to the dirty south to catch balls from Bryce Young!! Sounds like a win for ISM

They would rather raise the practice squad limit than roster. Practice squad does not count toward the 3 years in NFL to qualify for their pension.

Being on the practice squad does not count towards credited seasons. Therefore, players on the practice squad will not be eligible for a pension unless they are activated and play in at least three regular-season games.

Another reason teams prefer to expand practice squads:

Practice squad players make $12k per week or $216k per season.

Active players have a $750k minimum.

I'm glad the practice squad size has been growing in recent years. I've always found the NFL lack of a development league or office to be odd. These guys get cut and then go back to their local high school and lift weights. That can't be good for the health of the league. I'm surprised there isn't an NFL version of extended spring training or the Arizona Fall League where all the marginal guys have somewhere central to train and eat correctly.

Parker Hesse switches to TE. Proves he can block and even catch. Gets cut.

Tyler Goodson? What happened there?

King and Kirksey cut by the Texans?

Yeesh.

 

[LarryMullenJr.]

Buffalo has a crap o-line. Somewhat surprising they cut Ike.

Didnt Hesse move to TEnd in the pros and play a couple of years so far

He sure did and has been playing for a couple of years.

 

[uihawk82]

He sure did and has been playing for a couple of years.

He has good hands based on his beautiful pick 6 against Nebby in 2015 and I think he had at least one or two more dropping off into coverage on a blitz package. Not bad for a DEnd

Desmond King has signed with the Steelers! Love seeing another Hawkeye in black and gold!
