There's no way Croyle would clear waivers to go the PS.

There's only 2 choices:

1) Cut Huard and have zero experience backing up Green.
2) See if Printers can clear waivers and put him on the PS.

I personally like #2. I've seen too many Brian Shay-types come through this organization to get too excited about Printers.

NFL contracts are not guaranteed ... and a player has to be cut(contract termination) before being placed on the practice squad.

when a player whom is under contract is cut by an NFL team they have go through the waiver process before a team can sign them again.


practice squad players have a set contract amount IIRC. It was 50k per year .......... now i think it's been raised (75k ??? )

iirc he was also the MVP in the CFL at one point.

That's what football needs. Not this NFLE, they need farm teams where they are still under NFL contract. Get rid of NFLE, and maybe have certain teams share farm clubs, but have them able to be under NFL contract without playing in the NFL.

Then again, maybe that's a bad idea.
