Check out our Practice squad (https://www.washingtonfootball.com/team/players-roster/): apart from Moreland pretty much every noticeable cut has been brought back, AGG, Reaves, Barber, Martin, Bradley-King, Ismael, Danny Johnson... I don't think I've known that many names from our PS before :laughing-

Moreland is back but on IR.

Must admit, most years I'd expect about 6-7 from our own camp roster plus 3-4 from other releases. This year they obviously haven't seen anyone else released that's better than our own guys. Hopefully that's a good sign.

Expanded practice squad is weird. Basically seems like everyone that made it to the last round before being cut gets added to the PS.

And teams go with the familiar and just bring back their own guys for the PS.

That is the half full approach. Must admit I look at from the half empty approach, I am amazed none of our roster (which I thought was talented) was valued by 31 other teams to bring them onto their squad. Only Steven Montez was given a spot, and QB is always overvalued. That none of the WRs or DL was taken says something, and it's not good.

That said the neutral portion of it is that our culture and team building is positive enough that if players had a choice of Practice Squads and teams, and I am sure some did, they chose to stay here.

It's still only the second year of our rebuild and we've come much farther than I expected. We're still working on the overall team depth but we seem to have upgraded some units since last season.

Specifically, here where I hope you'll agree we've probably gotten better:

Defensive Backfield
Offensive Line
Wide Receiver
Tight End

Units that might be a little better:

Quarterback - Hard to say at this point and we still need that "Franchise" QB.
Running Back - Ummm, I dunno. We'll see.
Defensive Line - We got Matty I back at DT but lost Ryan K at DE. Backup DE's seem to be weak.

Units that seem to be about the same:

Linebacker - Wafer thin depth.

Units that might have slipped a notch:

Special Teams - K seems to be declining. PR/KR sucks, as usual.

Ron Rivera closes his presser saying, (loosely), ‘I’m about about to give you something to write about but I don’t want to go into that right now… and I know y’all are gonna text me to find out.”

lol Ron clearly likes to play with the media

Former #Seahawks LB KJ Wright is, in fact, heading to the #Raiders on a 1-year. A move they had been hoping for in Vegas

Moreland is back but on IR.

I don't see him there. He has a knee bruise, don't see him going to IR for that.
