Brat&Beer Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I was at a practice the year Cory Rodgers was a rookie. After practice they had him catching extra punts out of the jugs machine. I swear he only caught about half of them cleanly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just going down the list of 4th round picks (or earlier) that didn't get 1+ years in Green Bay: 2006: Cory Rodgers (released before RS) 2013: Johnathan Franklin (released after 1 year, career-ending injury) 2014: Khyri Thornton (released before RS) 2017: Vince Biegel (released before RS) 2018: J'Mon Moore (released before RS) I believe that's everyone there. Colby Wooden played in nearly 23% of the defensive snaps last year. Biegel only played in 11% of the defensive snaps that year. I'm not going to say never, but it seems unlikely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Lofton Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Is it possible that Clifford and Pratt both get put on the practice squad? And then one gets activated for the first three games and then the other for the next three? And by the seventh game, someone will have been hurt and they can just put them on the 53 man roster?

I assume it's within the rules, but I'd put the odds of it happening that way at just a little over 0.0% One of them will be on the 53 as QB2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Maz said, it should be legal. But the last thing you want is your QB being poached before gameday when they've likely been the room for game planning. Imagine on the Thursday or Friday before the game, the Eagles sign Pratt/Clifford to their 53 man roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just explain to them when they get cut the following Monday, they won't be coming back if they go. It's not as if teams don't have quarterbacks on the practice squad. The league should actually address this though. You can claim a guy, but if it a guy form a team you are playing this week, the guy can't join your team until after the game and you can't communicate with them.

Not for any particular reason, just a camp crush. He had solid athleticism at a position of need so I figured he could step in and take a starting spot. He could not. Then the Pack entered a long period of wandering in the wilderness trying to find a credible solution at safety. Still have to see the young guys play but we are in a much different spot today.

That would be extremely risky. If I'm other teams, I'm claiming them just to screw the Packers over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
