Michael Sam - Should we?

I'm pretty sure you can't sign a player from the practice squad of a team you are playing in the current week.

 

I don't think he's a horrible player, but he definitely is not a power rusher.  He was basically insurance in the event that Spencer's injury prevented him from playing this year.  I never heard anything bad about him, or anything particularly good about his skills.

Ah, I didn't know that.  Interesting, and thanks for sharing.  So never mind this thread then.  Lock 'er up!

I'm not sure Sam won't help much, maybe only in obvious pass rush situations.   But as a marketing tool he would be a coup for any team that truly markets him right... Sam's jersey sales alone would mean a fortune, not to mention the good will with the GLBT community would be a deflection of the name game.

 

But again.. it would be a media circus..  again.

 No, in so many ways.

 

 Not good enough to even make a practice squad.

 Nowhere close to being a starter.

 Haslett has his hands full already without having to teach another person the ins-outs.

 Haslett might use him as an excuse for why his defense regressed, thus generating sympathy and another year of his failure.

 Darma drama drama, damned sure have enough of that right now.

 

 No offense to the OP, but this is one of the least deserving threads i've seen in a long time.

 

 Now, pardon me while i go kick my own ass for even replying to this nonsense.

I'm pretty sure you can, it's happened this year.  Also, the Redskins did it a couple years ago to some team, I can't remember who...

No offense taken.  :)

I say why not? We need help on defense. What does it hurt to sign him to the PS?

 

And for those saying, "he's not any good, he can't stick on a PS", remember someone by the name of James Harrison? He bounced around different practice squads before he finally got his shot.


[dih-strak-shuh n]
noun
that which distracts, divides the attention, or prevents concentration

 

Can you provide me with examples of how he's been a distraction this season?
