Place holders for when Bailey comes back and when we find a 3rd QB!We dont need 5 running backs AND 5 TE's
When can we start making waiver claims and signing guys to the PS?

Thanks CoachO, appreciate the insight.Here's my thoughts on the Special Teams based on my notes from Training Camp and the Depth Charts:
Kickoff Team:
McDonald Joyner B. Cunningham Armstrong McLeod Zuerlein Bates C. Davis Harkey Reynolds McGee
Kickoff Return:
Alexander Armstrong Bates C. Davis
Bayer Reynolds
Harkey
Barnes Person
B. Cunningham
Givens
Punt Coverage:
McGee Armstrong Harkey McQuaide Sims Bates McLeod
B. Cunningham C. Davis
Reynolds
Hekker
I posted it in the positions they line up in, and it re formatted it. But the Punt Team is set up based on who the front line (gunners and interior line) on back to the punter. Kickoff team is front line on back to the KR. and how they are lined up.Thanks CoachO, appreciate the insight.
For those who want to see the lineup the way he wrote it, you're going to have to quote his post because I think the forum autocorrected into a list.
The reason they still have 5 TEs, is because the guy they wanted to keep is now not healthy enough for week one. And they were not going to offer him an injury settlement to release him. Read into that whatever you want to.
They were fielding trade offers, mainly on Westbrooks, and a few on Sam but in the end, didn't get what they thought was good value.
My impression was they had a few inquires, but teams were more interested in finding what the Rams were looking for. At that point they hadn't made the final decision to cut him. As I said, the more serious discussions were on Westbrooks. And that is where my comment about not getting value was meant for.Can you explain this to me coacho? Confusing me a little. They didn't get good enough value for Sam so they let him go for nothing? I'm assuming a player coming back would be one that wouldn't make the team?? Cuz getting nothing instead of even a late pick doesn't make any sense. And it would have been good for Sam if we secured him a spot on another team.
