I think having an all pro LG and a pro bowl center helps paper over some things. Dion looked great in his rookie year next to Richie and Eric, but wasn’t nearly as good with the rotating cast we had in 2018.

I'm assuming that the reason they could do this is because he was on the PS, not the active roster.  If he had been on the roster, he'd have become an UFA and free only to sign after the season is over/during the FA period.  As a PS player, and their season over, he was free to sign anytime.

Exactly - seems incredibly odd. Even if a rule this year makes no sense. Start a guy and another team can still take him?

Yes. Player was elevated for a game. When done with game he goes back to PS win or out.

Are we allowed to pick up PS players from only playoff teams or could we take one from Arizona or Miami, etc.?

Look at practice squads.

Thing that confuses me is he wasn't on the practice squad at the end of their season.   He was active for the playoff loss.  So should that not mean he can't be sign?

I think he was a game day elevation meaning went back to PS when the clock expired

They have to fix that loophole.  Players from eliminated teams should be ineligible.

 

So, say Jim Harbaugh returns to the NF, or two coaches or GMs are good friends.  His team is eliminated and has a Pro Bowl player that will be a free agent and they’ve decided they can’t keep him. John’s Ravens could use that player so Jim’s team assigns him to the practice squad so John can add him.  I know that’s a different scenario and far fetched but could it happen?
