You don't think maybe there were some underlying issues involved with Spain? Seems clear as can be to me I could see why Spain was cryptic with his tweet towards OBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiezzz Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) I don't know the details of signing off practice squad, but if I had to guess, we probably signed him to a 1 year deal, and he'll leave next free agency period.

BillsFanForever19 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Odd considering I think we're all expecting Jon Feliciano to be activated to the 53. Assumed they'd just use Spain's roster spot for him. Now do they release Boettger or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 He made a few plays but he struggled against the run for the most part from what I could tell. So we'll see how this plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Dareus is out of shape I have never seen him get blown up like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got blown off the line, constantly. Look at the exact words: "helped us some in the run game" Some is a very convenient word. 1 hour ago, jkeerie said: As I understand it, when players are elevated from the practice squad, they don't automatically get put on the 53. Because of covid, you are allowed two "free" PS calls ups each week to suit up for that game. The same player, though, can only be elevated twice...so you either keep them on the PS after the second call up or you can elevate them. I believe this was Zimmer's second call up, so they either had to elevate him to the permanent 53, or not be allowed to use him the rest of the season. If I am in error in my understanding of the rules, please someone correct me so I don't mislead others. I don't think the deal is you can't use him the rest of the season, he's just subject to the normal practice squad rules after the first 2 call ups. Waivers are the difference. First two call-ups: can put back on practice squad without exposing the player to waivers After that: can still call him up to the 53, but then you either have to keep him on the 53, or expose him to waivers before he can re-sign to the practice squad And as you said, if I'm misunderstanding, I'd appreciate being set straight. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Jets go off offensively I will definitely be onboard the Fire Frazier train. Frazier’s always been quite basic and conservative imo. He made his defense work in Minnesota with good pass rushers and solid Dline play. I think Frazier’s bend don’t break defense needs guys capable of making plays to function properly. We have no playmakers, and this defense isn’t going to function well without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) When you let 2 guys in Phillips and Lawson leave who were arguably our strongest guys off the snap, you are going to have problems. I don’t care what the advanced stats said about Phillips in the run game, that guy pushed people into the pockets and won battles. Lawson was amazing at never getting pushed back and was one of the best run/pass DE’s in the NFL.
