First Round Bust Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 when the days highlight is a long snapper being re-signed, its time to dig a litter deeper to feed us barnyard animals...from spotrac Initial 53-Man #NFL Rosters by Draft Round 1st Rounders: 263 2nd Rounders: 223 3rd Rounders: 226 4th Rounders: 184 5th Rounders: 146 6th Rounders: 138 7th Rounders: 94 Undrafted: 415 - So what was the effect of the pandemic ? Hmmm...the bottom of the draft rounds 4-5-6-7 add up to 562 Notable #NFL Cutdown Notes of the 415 UDFAs (24%) made an initial 53-man roster. 90 of those were signed this year. The #Patriots released all of their backup QBs. The #Lions released all of their kickers. The #Jets retained $1.2M of Chris Herndon’s salary when trading him to MIN. Players added to the Reserve/IR can be designated to return in 3 weeks - (Stevenson's speedy return, to in turn, intern as return-er) There’s no limit to how many players a team can designate. Should he sign elsewhere, Cam Newton will likely be offered a $1.075M league minimum salary. The #Patriots will then owe him just $425,000 of his original $1.5M guaranteed salary, as offset language kicks in. BB that bat rastard strikes again... Finally...The Athletic is running a sale, check it out, the content is really good for both our teams, locally (Joe B and others) and Sabres coverage by former BN legend John Vogel...plus national coverage is excellent and you get all sports, and baseball gods Gammons, Posnanski and tons of ex SI, ESPN, etc... Lastly - 10 mins of 2020 drone video over our city of 260k with a metro pop of 1.31M.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRuumTVOxdg enjoy whilst the PS squads fill.... 1
