Practice squad signings

How is this man CJ Saunders even on the practice squad? I remember he looked like a little kid out there on a punt return last year and literally almost got killed out there..... What is Rhule's obsession w this guy? I guess he is just a hard worker and good locker room guy, but he's no better than the local accountant across the street. Let's not forget Rhule had this man playing over Shi all summer and would've cut Shi had Saunders not got cut. What an embarrassment.

Are you always this pissed off about Practice Squad signings?  Saunders by all accounts had a very strong training camp to where many of us thought he was poised to make the 53-man roster.  So if you're shocked that he made the Practice Squad, then you clearly weren't paying any attention to any of the practice threads where reporters were continuously tweeting about Saunders catching everything thrown his way.

 

He also returned a punt against the Bills for 23 yards so I'm not sure why you're referencing a punt return from last preseason.  I couldn't care less if he looks like a kid out there if he's giving us 23-yard returns.

No. I just know he's only here b/c Rhule has a weird obsession with the dude and other people deserve to be in his spot making money. I don't really care because no practice squad receiver has much of a chance anyway, just want to know what's up between him and Rhule. And he never returned a punt for more than negative yards lol.

CJ is Matt Rhule's love child...

    • They addressed D in free agency in a big way (Edge, ILB) and they signed a starting OT and a player they think could be a swing OT in reserve.  They have claimed to be adding "Weapons" to the offense.  I think that will be their focus.  I agree 100% that we need a T, but a reserve, developmental OT in a weak (at the top) draft does little to address that weakness in 2026.  If they are telling the truth, a reserve developmental OT is not a weapon.  The will draft a WR if that statement and their actions in free agency are accurate.  That does not mean we ignore OT--I just dont see where he takes a T if he is filling holes. As a coach, I am concerned about OT, but when I look at the roster, I see bigger immediate problems. S: We are OK if you want Scott for another season. Not ideal.  There is also talk of Smith-Wade being moved to S.  If so, we need a CBN. DT: Who took Robinson's job?  He played a lot.  All DTs (NT-DE) were average to below average, including 280 lb wharton.  We need a DT (my preference for the first pick, to be honest)  I am guessing a DT will be our third rounder? ILB:  Unless we want Wallace out there in coverage, we need a compliment to Lloyd.  I think Lloyd's starting mate is the second rounder. (speculating)  This pick is likely to occur in the second round because it is for a starting position. WR:  Some are fine with what we have.  sIn 2025, Coker had 3  TDs on 394 yards.  Legette had 3 TDs and 363 yards--and only 1 drop.  I love Coker, but neither should make us feel secure about WR with those numbers.  A lot depends on both stepping up in 2026, but Canales has been screaming weapons.  Could he mean Tight end?  That depends on how good they feel about Coker and XL. Center:  You can get a player ready to start relatively early in the middle rounds.  Very similar to the OT situation but I think C may be more of a priority right now than OT.   Tight End:  They seem to like Delp from Georgia who projects round 4. CB:  There was some talk of moving Smith-Wade to S (to learn for a season with Scott, maybe?) and that might require adding CB depth inside. Tackle?:  I agree that we need one, but this draft is simply not strong at the top at T.  The ONLY way to get a quality OT that is still developmental is to take one in round 1.  Canales has all but said we are not doing that.  But after the first 40 picks or so, they pretty much level out for a good while.  The fifth rounders and the third rounders are about the same.  For that Reason, I am guessing (It is all guesses) that they
