That or the site that can't be named, seems like just their MO. Say a bunch of illogical or downright false crap because you're buttblast about being wrong about the cuts and throw a temper tantrum about it.
They took a shot at at guy who has potential and some experts said could be late 2nd to 3rd round pick.If he would've worked out it's a steal.But with the talent we now have on the team that 5th most likely gets cut next year.
Huge assumption...If he's not ready to contribute, he won't be claimed.
Truth at last...Williams is the find, Battle needs to develop....He'll get that chance, odds he's claimed are slim an none since he must be given a bonus of some kind and added to a teams 53 man roster...All the linemen on our team look able to step in and play if necessary. It's a great time to be a fan. No need to carry a player that can't play over a guy that has improved (I'm telling ya, the first time I actually saw Williams I was freaking out, he looked terrible. So did Battle. Williams looked so much better over 3 weeks time.) Read his college reports. Solid guy, team leader/captain....I was shocked at how he looked early...SFU is a good lil program or is it CFU...Wherever, football hot bed...Glad we went heavy & hard for tackles....Glad we got rid of Joe Barksdale...Bet Schotty is saying if we'd have done this last year, he'd still be here...Everything happens for a reason....
Right. And that's the thing a lot of people aren't recognizing. Teams aren't gonna pick up a guy and put him on their 53 if he's not near enough to being ready to suit up. Every. Single. Team. Out. There. is dumping players they drafted late with the anticipation that they're gonna get them right back.
Exactly....while I saw something different early, later I could tell some good things were going on....this is something I hoped earlier
yeah, I couldn't tell SFU from CFU....all the stuff I found then...Makes sense...Hard worker probably...
Wow. Yeah - because Davis is maybe a bit ahead of rookie 3rd round pick Mannion, Davis is the better player to keep. That is some brilliant analysis. How does this guy get a gig with Rotoworld? So much for my respect for that site. This is idiotic on such a basic level.
I think that is how it goes. I think that may be more of a hindrance than the idea of paying $90k for an O-lineman if you think he might be better than one that you have already on the roster. If you sign him off a practice squad, you better be pretty convinced he's an upgrade over at minimum your 53rd best player.
I just don't see why this is so difficult to understand. You take a shot at a guy with a 5th round pick. If he turns out to be a stud, you just got a bargain. If not, he is like most 5th rounders and doesn't make the team. You can't find that out by letting another team nab him. So now he probably makes it to the practice squad unless we found out something about him that we really didn't like. Either way, you took a shot and it may or may not work out in the end.
