Paul to the PS. Stallworth gets the axe (he doesn't play teams)

How do you still have Banks on that list seeing as how the KR/PR have been just as effective without him in there? I think there is too much potential on Paul to let go (not that he's shown us much yet) as compared to a 1 trick pony who's talents we've shown have been replaced in his absence.

If Banks is healthy he's too valuable in the return game. Austin is a nice backup as a returner, but Banks is still the big play guy. Austin doesn't match him in that regard.

Paul hasn't shown us much in the passing game. John Keim has remarked that his route running at this point is still really a work in progress.

This makes the most sense at this point assuming Banks is healthy

SFREDSKIN · 08-26-2011, 12:58 PM

Moss
Gaffney
Armstrong
Austin
Hankerson
Paul
Banks- If healthy, keep him as a return specialist, carry 2 QB's to create a position for him. If not healthy and it would not surprise me if he is put on IR for the year.

I would love to keep all 7.

If Banks goes to IR (hope not), do they keep Stallworth as a 6th wr or go w/5?

saden1 · 08-26-2011, 01:11 PM

Oh man, I love Austin. This guy is for real unlike our post scrub preseason wr heros. He just might be worthy of the #3 wr spot.

saden1 · 08-26-2011, 01:24 PM

#1 Moss
#2 Gaffney
#3 Armstrong
#4 Austin
#5 Stallworth
#6 Hankerson

Practice Squad:
Paul, Robinson

Banks is making the team as a Special Teamer much like our punter and kicker.

this seems to make the most sense, that's still a lot of "WR" spots though. I don't think they'd keep that many on the 53 AND 2 on the PS. i don't think robinson makes it.

daniels, sellers, and banks would be nice people to find a spot for. daniels in jarvis, banks in clemons spot, and sellers instead of the 9th OL or whatever since we don't have enough quality bodies yet to justify roster space.

I think at this point it will be

Moss
Gaffney
Armstrong
Austin
Hankerson
Banks

Paul and/or Robinson to the PS. Also once Paul is on the PS, can't he decline an offer to join another team? I've heard of that happening before, like last year with some rb on our practice squad who wanted to stay because of Shanny's system. Not saying it won't happen with Paul but you never know.

I believe you're thinking of James Davis who had the choice of joining our practice squad, and I believe Indy's, but chose ours in large part because of the system..which apparently kept him down and led to his release

I believe you're right. Funny how that worked out. And technically he's not released yet, we still own his rights just in case he does decide to come back (which will probably lead to his release).

active roster pays 3-5x more than the practice squad, so...

So maybe if he wants more money he joins an active roster elsewhere, but it's not uncommon for ps players to decline spots on other teams' rosters if they feel more comfortable with where they're at. Either way we'll see, I'm just happy that we have this problem to begin with.

SmootSmack · 08-26-2011, 02:21 PM

I think he actually did finally get released
