hjerry Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 With Heimuli gone, that only leaves 5 of the pre-Quinn fringe guys on the team. By "fringe" I mean guys that were PS fodder, and who've either never made the team, or who made it only b/c of injury and were almost always inactive from that point on, so I'm also not including our own draft picks in this.

Knight of God Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 but he played for the Jags which is what 60% of the board only cares about It was very annoying to me before, but it was the amount of players taken from the Jags over time. It was very annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egoprime II Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We should be signing former Steelers, Ravens, Packers, Patriots...guys from winning teams that at least have been exposed to a winning atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good players can come from anywhere.its a hard concept to grasp...maybe bad teams are bad because they can't develop talent properly. Doesn't automatically mean the player sucks.

likeriver Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I feel like we've been recruiting a boatload of CB's this offseason. Maybe it just seems that way to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the five I came up with.If they've stuck around this long, I think all of the practice-squad eligible players will be heavily considered to stick around on the practice squad again. Particularly Reedy and Replogle, who has taken over for Konz on the second-string offensive line.I actually think Sean Baker has a shot at the Final 53. With Godfrey showing nothing, Baker looks like our best option to backup Ricardo Allen at FS. I was really impressed with what Baker showed last offseason, and was happy when we kept him around.
