At least 3 of them are at positions of potential need next year.

Interesting. Will keep an eye/ear out t see how the progress in mini camps/ota's to see if they can make an impact next season.

Fuq Hurney.

eh... dont like. I think that Keiser was the exception, not the rule.

Id have to agree. Keiser is one of those ps gems. Although ive seen a few teams esp. The giants got some pretty decent players off their ps

They're for training camp and mini camp retards.

[Cold Cat]

we'll see how it goes. it's a long offseason.

:lol: it's always funny to see the overreaction for stuff like this like they are guys they want to have starting or something.

its just to make sure they have bodies at TC and mini camp and such.

nothing worth starting a fire hurney campaign over.

Sure these guys are signed as potential training camp fodder but we signed them because we think they have potential. Every team does this to signnthem before some other team does the same thing. While the likelihood that any of these guys will make the squad is not great, we have certainly found guys off our own and other team's practice squads. A few years ago we got Matt Moore. Even this year Gordon and Nelson were promoted from the practice squad to the active roster.

Don't care. Hurney better train his eyes to look OUTSIDE the freaking organization and away from league-wide scrap piles.

This is something every team does. Not really anything to be mad about.

i agree. the problem i have is that people act like this is going to be the limit of our offseason activity or that we are counting on them fixing the D or whatever when it's just a way to keep guys around we'd like to look at more. that's the reason some guys were put on IR late in the season when it really wasn't necessary. they wanted to make sure that they had these young guys around.
