Also seeing how it's early in the season - aren't there players on practice squads better than the free agents they brought in? I know taking players off of others teams practice squads winds up converting to draft picks - but it's early in the season and being 2-0 has already increased your playoff chances. Don't bring in scrubs.
Players on practice squads usually are scrubs. Otherwise, their teams wouldn't expose them to be plucked by other teams.
At least the veteran scrubs have starting experience. The last thing I want to see is starting some rookie practice squad player in a playoff game.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
