Ford appears to be one of the top 5, thus he should play. Nope. I agree with playing him at RG if it makes the best 5. Just sucks that the depth went from solid to really bad in a second 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they move Ford back to RT, Nsecke is the swing tackle and Waddle may have been cut Cut? I don't know. They will keep four OTs and Waddle has started a couple seasons worth of games in his career. That paired with the fact he was on a relatively cheap contract, no reason to cut him so long as he performed well in the preseason games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not carry 4 OTs in my opinion and would not have but that is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up to 2 can return to play starting week 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"These players are ineligible to play again for the same team during the current season, but they can be cut and then go on to sign with another team." I stand corrected. If a player is on IR to start the season he in ineligible for return. I thought that was changed last year when they went to any 2 players to come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 An infuriating headline on many levels: How LaAdrian Waddle's injury affects New England Patriots' draft picks The first thought is, "WTF, how does a Bills' player injury affect Pats* draft?" Then it gets worse, because the article explains that Waddle going on IR virtually guarantees Pats* a 6th round comp pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't cut a player who's still injured, and Waddle's recovery will last past preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the injury settlement can only happen once the player is ruled healthy. The player can then sign with any other team. The team that cut the player must wait 8 weeks to sign post settlement.

I was wrong on whether settlement occurs when the player is healthy. But the time frame to health has a bearing on the settlement, and if the injury is longer than 17 weeks then the player has to be IRd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
