Moore is the guy I was hoping they would sign in 2013 to be a bridge quarterback to Geno Smith. Oooo the memories.
I’m kinda surprised people are this shocked about Speaks and his injury timetable. I figured that was a given. |

I love when all the fat ****s on here get indignant about a player’s weight.
Good news for Tanoh.

on the bright side injuries allow us to stash some young developing talent a little easier...
I'm bummed about Speaks, but the rest of it doesn't really move the needle with me. |

Welp still over reaction planet.
Speaks doesn't suck. Not every player drafted is going to be a superstar HOF player. Ogbah probably makes the roster now as a DE and allows them to keep both X. Williams and J Hamilton. Henne meh whatever. We aren't going to win anything with him or Moore or Shurmur or Litton.

Just because I don’t write players off before year 2 it doesn’t mean I’m a fan. ****ing moron.

Speaks is good rotational depth.
Not his fault where he was drafted.

You keep Reaser and Dieter on the IR, you're burning $1.15 million or so in cap space to do it - why? Just cut both of them. You should probably consider cutting Henne as well; you could save $1.5 million of his base salary doing that. Kemp and Lovett have genuine 'stash' value so they're worth the headache, but people forget that if you IR a dude you gotta pay him like an NFL player. Cut some of that dead weight.

Only 2 of them can. You don't have to 'pre-designate' who those 2 are, though.
The only caveat is that you have to have them on the 53 for day 1 of the season. So anyone that's put on the IR before the season starts cannot return (likely to happen with Kemp if it hasn't already). But if a player is injured, kept on the roster and then IR'd after the 53 man cut-down, they can be one of your 2 players that returns. Just another reason why putting the IR tag on Dieter is useless. You don't want to clear a 53 man spot for the guy and if you don't at cut-down deadline, he can't come back anyway. Just cut him loose.
