Looks like DP is staying. Hope they keep Jordan and Brooks (as a FB). Taylor probably gets cut to PS...but I have a feeling Jordan will also go the PS (if he clears waiver).
I love DP the person but man, he hasn't shown anything in the games. I assume Demeco saw something in him and I trust him, but we shall see. Its night and day when we see RB2 Akers do his thing, DP`s feet seem to be stuck in wet concrete most the time
The Emergency QB just got more complicated with the ruling the Emergency QB will have to be added to the 53 man roster. So the advantage of being on the Practice squad has gone away.
The rule reverts to the 2023 parameters, which state that an emergency third QB must be on the 53-man roster or as one of two standard elevations per week. An elevated QB would have to be active for the game rather than in the emergency role. A player can be activated three times per season.
Deion Jones released by BUF :eyes emoji: They lost Milano for the season already.... this.is.interesting Then again I am probably just focused on his past glory... LSU ties tho
From ESPN article on trade candidates Robert Woods, WR, Texans Financial obligation: $6.5 million in 2024 Why: The Texans are stacked at receiver. It's a bit of a surprise the 32-year-old Woods is still on the roster, given that the Texans are clearly set at receiver with their top trio of Nico Collins, Tank Dell and Stefon Diggs. ... Woods feels like the odd man out. Teams don't typically keep wide receivers making $6.5 million on the roster if they're going to be the fourth or fifth man up, and only $1.5 million of his compensation is guaranteed. The rest would become guaranteed if he is on the roster in Week 1, which puts a deadline on this deal. The veteran could take a pay cut to stay with the team, given that he won't be earning $5 million on a new deal elsewhere. He might want to agree to a smaller salary (say, $3 million) that would be split between the Texans and another team, especially if Houston is willing to send him to a contender. Logical landing spot: Lions. OK, OK, one more reunion. General manager Brad Holmes was in Los Angeles when Sean McVay & Co. signed Woods in free agency, and while Holmes was focused on college scouting, I'm sure he caught a Rams game or two during his tenure. Detroit hasn't really replaced departed wideout Josh Reynolds, and Woods' reliability and blocking make him the type of player coach Dan Campbell covets. He's not going to take snaps away from Jameson Williams, but in a rotation alongside Kalif Raymond and Donovan Peoples-Jones, Woods would see more playing time in Detroit than he would in Houston. Lions cut DPJ... ------------------------------------- John Metchie, WR, Texans Financial obligation: $1.4 million in 2024 Why: He's another player buried by the depth chart. Metchie was once expected to be the future No. 1 receiver for the Texans, but nobody could have anticipated what would happen to him after being drafted. Metchie was diagnosed with leukemia in July 2022, and while he thankfully was able to return to the field, it cost him all of his rookie season. He spent most of last season in a reserve role, only to see Nico Collins and Tank Dell break out as stars before the team added another impact wide receiver in Stefon Diggs. I mentioned the Texans could move on from Robert Woods before Week 1, but finding a new home for Metchie could be another way to resolve their logjam at wide receiver. Metchie finished his college career with an 1,142-yard season at Alabama, and while he was also recovering from a torn ACL at the end of his time there, he just turned 24 and should be stronger this season. It's hard not to root for Metchie to succeed, and his best chance of doing so is probably away from Houston.
Let the fun begin!!!! 2 biggest names for me today are DP and Metchie. I hope we can trade DP and get him a fresh start and I think Metchie makes it and Woods is cut or traded..........and I see that move as depth and to save some $$$$ Interested to see if we pick up anyone, interior D Line would be nice and LB is a bonus
It's gonna be a fun late morning early afternoon because there's like 1000 people that need to be cut by 3 pm and every team seems to be moving like cold molasses l
