trying to think why these owners are so reluctant to add a few more spots to the rosters to make up for the constant flow of injuries....
you figure that like 5 more players on the roster can't be that much more expensive, esp if you only upwardly adjust the cap by a little bit
but then you get guys who go on IR in preseason, and duds like Dez who don't even play a snap - and all the sudden you are on the hook for an ACL surgery and months of rehab
is that what's really going on here? medical costs?
or is this another 'george soros is puppetmaster and doesn't want it' type thing

The NFL is a war of attrition - I wouldn't support expanding the active roster. I think limiting to a certain amount of players per team means that the coaches and GMs have to concentrate more on players 1 - 55. Teams that have found success over the last several years or so almost always had to deal with a significant injury or two or three or four. Just look at Philly last year at QB.Electromatic wrote:96583UP wrote:given all the injuries that happen to NFL players, what do you think the 'all-in' cost per player is to a franchise in a given year?

It makes zero sense not to add the entire practice squad as roster spots today and there’s no real need for inactives, the only thought against it i guess is the possibility for a lack of competitive balance. But that said, make the trading deadline week 15 or so, so playoff teams can load up and out of it teams can sell off.
They’re paying a damn figure head 55 million a year. There’s plenty of cash.

I'm biased here because that's been the blueprint for the Pats - concentrating on all players equally w/ intense evaluation, etc. Of course, other teams have mastered this as well.
