Only 45 players are active every week for gameday 8 guys sit out every week. If Nickerson or Schreck make a big enough impact in preseason that you cant stash them on the practice squad without another team snatching them up. Then they far outweigh a 30 year old blocker on special teams. Or a tackler that can add 8 tackles a year or so.
