No_Matter_What Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Seems that both Van Demark and Anderson have made the team. Makes me very happy. Means that they are giving young players a chance and that you can actually earn your roster spot.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Could ike be a guy they bring back after someone gets placed on IR?

Big Turk Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Some speculating Reid Ferguson will get cut for a day so they can get Spector to in-season IR giving them the option of bringing him back at some point during the year. Then will resign Ferguson again tomorrow. Perfect candidate since he has no guarantees in his contract and is not subject to waivers.

Veterans with four or more accrued seasons in the league, however, are released instead of waived, making them free agents who can sign with any team of their choosing." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikePJ76 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Seems the bills whether by design, because the talent warrants it or maybe because the top heavy salary cap numbers demand it are going with some youth. Youth makes less money but brings more mistakes generally. When you have superstars like this team does you have to essentially do this and cut veteran backups and save where you can.

Chiefs didn't invent it or discover it etc.. Its all you can do when you have superstars tipping the salary cap at the top. You have to compliment that with good drafts/udfa signings that can fill out your roster. Young talented players with small numbers. otherwise you end up with declining backup veteran players with bigger cap numbers. That is the recipe for disaster.

I'd love to have him out there against the Jets on MNF but not on that field. I have to hope we don't need him against the Raiders or Commanders. And you should beat the Dolphins at home with or without him. So let him get fully healthy and I don't even have a problem with him not playing in London. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
