First of all, I don't think his preseason numbers are bad at all. Second, as a research/data guy, I would never make an evaluation solely based on stats, without knowing more about context. And didn't he only have 5 punts this preseason. But more importantly, to dismiss a very good career based on a handful of preseason kicks seems a bit crazy to me. But to each his own, I guess. His age doesn't concern me at all, at this stage. He's a freaking punter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So selfless, so all about the team, great teammate, really good player that we expect big things from this year." Good size and speed. Would the league let Buffalo assign the same jersey # to both J. Browns? Put both on the field at the same time. Opposing secondaries wouldn't know which CB to line up on which Brown. LOL I suppose that would be too much to hope for from the No Fun League.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 7 hours ago, Ed_Formerly_of_Roch said: So how exactly does the whole waiver thing work? If I remember correctly, vets with more than is it 3 years in the league who are cut today are immediate free agents, less than 3 years you go through waivers. Does it also mean the 2nd a team makes a waiver claim, they need to release someone to stay at 53? So say the Giants who are above the Bills in the waiver order can't claim a punter who was released, try him out, then decide to cut their present one or release the one they just claimed? They'd likely as soon as they make the claim, release their current punter or someone else on the roster? It's 4th year of credited service, not 3 where players become immediate FA when cut (it's actually more complicated than that - between Feb and the trade deadline...) But yeah, basically - if a team makes a waiver claim and is awarded the player, they must immediately clear a spot on the active roster. They don't get to try the guy out then throw him back in the pond if they don't like him. 2 hours ago, MR8 said: I'd sign Jaron Brown immediately! 6'3", great size and speed....
