Primer for busy NFL weekend transaction


Captain Obvious

Recommended Posts

This is a good starting point for the transactions that will take place this weekend. If you are like me I am not in tune to the minutiae of the different types of transactions on NFL rosters.

This will be the busiest weekend without actual games played on the NFL calendar, with all 32 teams required to pare their rosters to 53 players for the regular season before signing a 10-man practice squad.

There are many different types of transactions that can be made, some of them easier to understand than others.

Here's a list of the most common moves that will be announced around the league after the deadline on Saturday afternoon:

I think there could be one error in this article:

Quote

 

RESERVE/INJURED: When a team places an injured player on a reserve list that's exempt from the 53-man limit. He's ineligible to return in the same season.

RESERVE/INJURED WITH DESIGNATION TO RETURN: Each team has one such card to play each season, when a player on injured reserve can return to practice after at least six weeks on the list and play after at least eight weeks on the list.

 

I believe starting this season, teams no longer have to specifically designate which player is the "injured with designation to return".  I think the rules have been changed to allow teams to make that decision later, once a player has been on the IR for six weeks.  Still only 1 player can be brought back onto the roster, but teams get a chance to wait and see who they most want / need to bring back to the roster once some time has elapsed.

So, if I understand correctly, of the players placed on the IR this weekend, each team WILL be able to bring back one of those players (or another player) after they've been on the IR a minimum of 6 weeks.

    • If you need someone to run your multi-billion dollar business, maaayyyybe don't hire a guy whose previous work experience includes repeated blows to the head and literal brain damage but IDK.
    • Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.
    • I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
