GETTOTHE50 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I feel bad for him and his development. He probably won’t be able to stick to a roster after the jets have another rebuild 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I can't remember another year when we had this many players signed off our practice squad. I think that just shows how much depth this roster has. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said this before, but the difference to a player between PS salary and a rookie minimum salary on the 53 man roster is significant https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-practice-squad-salary-2021-how-much-do-players-make/ar-AAOgVLB Quote As per the NFLPA's CBA, practice squad players make $9,200 per week or $165,600 per the whole season. In the case of veterans with 2+ years of experience, that number jumps to $14,000 weekly or $252,000 per 18 weeks. https://careerexplorerguide.com/nfl-rookie-salary/ Rookie minimum of $660,000 per week is $36,000/week. So for a guy on the practice squad, that minimum of an extra $80,400 (for the required 3 weeks on the active roster) is kind of a big deal, even if it means you have to play for the Jets....it's like a 50% raise in income. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I'll definitely give this front office credit for losing two of their late round picks that were stashed on the practice squad by midseason. But at the end of the day the odds of these guys panning out in the league are slim to none and kind of feel sorry for Wildgoose to leave a team like the Bills for a dumpster fire like the Jets.

Money aside, I don’t blame the guy for going when opportunities in this league can be fleeting. Just not sure I’m making that leap of faith for the Jets.

K-9 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 That makes two draft picks poached off our PS this season.

But if you were really into Trey Smith then fine. Anyway, I don't wish him well too. I don't want to hear about another Teller story (another thing I dislike).

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Did we lose 2 of our draft picks from this year? This is why being afraid to make trades are silly. These draft picks can’t even get on our roster. There’s no reason to be afraid of giving them up. We are losing them over nothing here. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
