Lose an OG hire a RB Lose a OT hire a QB Lose a RB hire a LT Lose a TE hire a FB Lose a RB hire a QB Lose a DE hire a WR The problem with the Skins is they view the PS as a place to keep the extra players instead of the place to keep and develope young talent.

I don't agree with that statement. Last year, when we had relatively few injuries, the skins did not initiate many practice squad changes. practice squad turnover was created almost entirely by other teams wanting to sign our PS players to the active roster. Conversely, this year, we've suffered a rash of injuries. When players get hurt and/or IRed, we're forced to adjust the practice squad accordingly. We've also elevated players from our PS to the active roster almost every year. I dont see how the skins utilize their practice squad as being remotely wrong or any different from that of any other team. SBXVII 12-03-2009, 03:29 PM Um, only last yr did anyone take from our practice squad and that was a Lineman I believe. There might have been a second to be taken but prior to that there have been little as far as other teams taking our players. I understand, You lose a OL most teams would bump someone up from the practice squad and bring another OL in to fill the vacancy. We have not done that this yr. We lost an OL and a RB was brought in, Alridge. We lost the LT and Mason was brought in. We lose Portis and Levi Jones was brought in. We lose TE Cooley and they bring in a FB. In other words they are not replacing position for position. Only 1 or 2 players came from the practice squad this yr. The rest came from off the team. So my statement is not as that far off....especially for this yr. MTK 12-03-2009, 03:45 PM Teams typically don't replace a position for a position when it comes to the practice squad. It's a developmental unit, it's not a backup for guys you lose to IR. mlmdub130 12-03-2009, 03:45 PM I think it's funny, I have not figured out how the system works?

Your list can't be complete...there's no punter scenario. It WAS lose Punter, demote Cooley, but then Cooley was lost and threw the entire system off. mlmdub130 12-04-2009, 06:18 PM eloi has some ups holy s YouTube - Jump Off - Truck Jump vs Pool Jump (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt5BPxICE2U) tryfuhl 12-05-2009, 03:27 AM I think it's funny, I have not figured out how the system works?

They're more likely to put someone in active roster that can start or make a contribution, so it's not always position for position. tryfuhl 12-05-2009, 03:28 AM eloi has some ups holy s YouTube - Jump Off - Truck Jump vs Pool Jump (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt5BPxICE2U) where were you this offseason? lol SBXVII 12-09-2009, 12:37 AM Ok, easy come easy go.... :( Press Release: REDSKINS SIGN JAMES ROBINSON TO PRACTICE SQUAD; RELEASE KEITH ELOI - EXTREMESKINS.com (http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?t=311050) PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release December 8, 2009 REDSKINS SIGN JAMES ROBINSON TO PRACTICE SQUAD; RELEASE KEITH ELOI LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA – The Washington Redskins announced today that they have signed wide receiver James Robinson to their practice squad.
