Robert Lester IS practice squad eligible?

I was wrong. I wasn't aware that this year the NFL is allowing two spots be players with less than two seasons accrued.

Each club will be permitted to sign a maximum of two Practice Squad players who have earned no more than two accrued seasons of free agency credit.

 

Yes!

I don't think so.

 

 

BTW, Lester lost his roster spot to a rookie who missed all of camp and preseason.

 

 

ouch

 

Thanks. So is Boston not getting IR'd it seems? Boston certainly has more athleticism and upside but Lester I think is much smarter.

Ha freaking ha to all of the people that were so sassy saying he wasn't eligible.

Last year he would not have been. I didn't realize this year in addition to the two extra spots they increased the eligibility playing time.

Also, JJ tried explaining it to me on the podcast, but that was after a full growler. It is what it is.

Sorry if you thought that post was about you. I asked the question if he was eligible and got bombarded with sass. I asked because I had seen it on twitter two or three days ago.

    • I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.  
    • Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up. 
    • I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
