Will anyone even pick up Huard from our practice squad?

I'm willing to take my chances with Croyle and Printers.

Good point, perhaps he'll have to put Printers on the practice squad if for no reason to protect a future investment.

Moooo

I like Gaz's idea. If we put Printers or Croyle on the practice squad someone will grab them but nobody wants Huard. He can just sit there until he retires or dies.

Moooo

There's probably about a dozen teams that would cut their #3 QB in order to claim Croyle off our PS/waivers for their #3 spot. He'd be gone before Peterson could finish signing the paperwork.

you can't put a veteran like Huard on the practice squad.

Why not?

Maybe we can keep Printers on the roster as special teams/3rd string running back? :hmmm:

True.

But would anyone even pick Huard up off the scrap heap?

I took the Occam comment by Gaz to mean he was serious. But I'll give it a kick to be sure.

I'm kinda confused, is it not that necessary to have a player who has exposure to the system for a year or two? I mean, I saw what Green did his first season as a starter... I question if its always that way, or if a QB can usually step in.

This season, right now, I want Huard to be the one who comes in if Green is injured. I won't like it, but he knows the plays, which IMO is the most important aspect of the position.

Can/would they keep all 4?

Mr. Laz 06-21-2006 11:52 AM

Practice squad rules: Teams can have a maximum of eight players on the practice squad. The limit was increased by three in 2004. Players credited with two or more NFL seasons are ineligible. There is no restriction for age or last season in college.
