Time to go up north and be a QB. To much talent wasted.

I figured as much when I saw no stats for him last night.

So far this is exactly what I was thinking. Any surprises with these to anyone else?

Andrew Peacock signed to Lions practice squad. I have a feeling he will be like Steven Miller and spend a year on practice squad. Peacock had a good preseason but I think expanding to 10 made it easy to keep him.

LB DJ Smith signed to Panthers practice squad.

Hopefully now Tony Washington ends up on one and then it's a pretty successful year for us, I think.

Only Miller and Edwards dropping from those with a shot would be all that's left.

how do you know he even wants to go to CFL? you do realize that he has 2 small kids and a wife settled in CLT, right? and a real estate business with Tony Robertson

just b/c you think he should do it, doesn't mean he wants to or should

If AE wants to continue playing football then he should go to the CFL. I do realize what you said and if he is fine with just doing that business, then yes he should stay where he is. When you have kids it changes everything for sure. He may be making more in real estate than he would in the CFL anyway.

Correct on Pressley. I didn't think DJ was practice squad eligible anymore.

They changed the practice squad rules and DJ was a beneficiary.

Yup. He was not eligible until they changed them. He and about 20-30 others out there are benefiting from it. DJ better make the 53 man roster next year though.
