packfanfb Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 If the Packers are keeping Telfort and Glover, I am assuming Dillard is actually hurt, as in IR hurt. Could be what Rob meant by us looking for another swing OT once the dust settles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I checked IR players count towards your roster. Fully guaranteed contract and not back until week 5 at the earliest is a bad combo especially for a low level backup.

Anyone have a player to nominate? I'll nominate Dillon after he fails to get a first down on third and half a yard. Rhyan seems a likely candidate, too.

When he doesn't make the ProBowl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is picking up that 2.whatever million-dollar salary. Edited August 27 by Old Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can release an injured player without some sort of settlement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Guy Posted August 27 Author Share Posted August 27 Just now, Brat&Beer said: If he's waived with an injury settlement, doesn't it depend on the extent of the injury? I believe an injury settlement is for less than the whole salary. Otherwise, what is the benefit to the team to release the person to catch on someplace else when they heal up.

Old Guy Posted August 27 Author Share Posted August 27 Acme has 19 players released or reported released plus Lloyd, who is reported to go on IR. That leaves 17 more if my math is correct, possibly 18 because of Willis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoremore Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Just catching up. Cwood was right about Pratt. Some reporting of bringing Cliffy back instead of Pratt on the PS. Dunno I'd take Pratt all day long. Hope we get him back. Newman finally gone. Been a long time comin'. Heath deserves to be on the 53. Welch seems to be a favorite around here. Don't think he'll get claimed either. Should be back on the PS. Waiting to hear on Joseph have a hard time believing he's safe. Hour left we'll find out soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
