Practice squad signing thread (1 Viewer)

So, Chase Thomas

You mean Hansen?

 

[Kegger]

That's a solid practice squad

I think they’ll move Gillikin to a protected spot once Washington comes off COVID list. Right now we have two of the best punters in the league and Gillikin gives us flexibility in case we need to work with Legatron to free up some cap space.

No I meant Chase Thomas from a few years back. He was slated to be drafted on day two, went undrafted, we got him as a UDFA and everyone lauded his “football smarts” but he wasn’t the most athletic LB. he never stuck around anywhere

Assuming it works like a normal week, it will happen on Tuesday at 4:00pm for week 1 protections.

Yep.

" Teams must designate four practice squad players as being protected from poaching by other teams each Tuesday during the regular season."

Yeah, I remember. I think Bachie's got more of a chance. Apparently he got the biggest signing bonus -- correction -- most guaranteed money -- out of all of them. So they must like what they see in him.

Regarding two spots still open:
1) agree, one is for the punter, so they can bring back that RB to the active roster
2) the other is apparently for Leglue, but for whatever reason there was a glitch filing it

Looks like two teams were interested in Keith Washington but he decided to stay w/ the Saints.

I'm glad he decided to stay with us. He did really well in camp from what reports were available to read. i believe he could develop into a good quality CB.

This snippet on Throckmorton is pretty impressive:

Throckmorton, 6-5, 309, was originally signed as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon in 2020. He made 52 consecutive starts (right tackle-41, left tackle-5, right guard-3, center-3) for the Ducks and allowed just one sack over his final 3,224 snaps (45 contests).

There he is, I always thought he'd sneak his way back into the club. Massive fan favourite that he is.

Drew must really like him as a friend. Almost 27 and 10 career receptions.

So at one time we thought the Patriots would snag him back if they got the chance, well they got the chance and passed on him. We will see if that remains the case or will they poach him at a later date
