Several of the names are familiar to me, but none seem to be real quality players, as you would expect at this point.

But, i did find a few interesting...  graham is a wr, but had mostly been a kr/pr guy so far in the nfl, due to his tremendous speed.  Darrel young is a FB.  Made me think of how mich Ginn Tolbert have been struggling lately.  I guess something to keep an eye on as they could be falling out of favor.

The TE over DE stuff...  i have nothing lol.

Could you elaborate on what the "bigger purpose" angle?

Yes, I can.

There isn't one.

These workouts are just the same standard weekly workouts that happen every season regardless of whether we're winning or losing.  The guys who are worked out generally only have a chance at the practice squad at best.  Once in a while a guy might make the 53rd spot on the roster but even if he does he'll probably be inactive on game days. Or, as Zod mentioned, you might see these guys as next year's camp fodder.

Mind you, it's different if we have an open roster spot because someone got injured / cut / whatever and we work someone out, but even then it's more likely someone already on the practice squad will get the job before an outsider does.

That's why it's so silly to see people make a big deal out of these workouts.  Frankly, if you're getting all hyped up over the meaningless weekly tryouts or assigning some goofball conspiracy theory to who's brought in, then you probably need to either better your football knowledge or loosen your tinfoil hat.

But I want to get pie for being the 12th person to say dumpster diving!

Yeah we should be looking at the QB position. It really needs help. Not like we need DE help or anything. Oh I see now. We brought in 1 DE for a tryout along with 4 other TEs. How great.

You do know that they only bring in QBs so that they can workout with all those WRs and TEs right?
