2016 Roster Thread

[MDS]

is the minutia surrounding the eagles hitting an apex now? ive seen an enormous amount of talk about those 2 losers making the PS, like it farging matters

if they didnt have preseason games you wouldnt have pretend coaches on their couches acting like they just know that midget scrub turner is destined for the hof

is the minutia surrounding the NFL hitting an apex now?

about ten years ago

[MDS]

it gets worse every year...i thought henry josey and the nova scrub were bad, but paul turner blows them all away

to be fair to my man j he has been very quiet on turner and at least never publicly developed a crush on him

[Diomedes]

Is Turner the one who returned a punt in a pre season game this year?  He's slow.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yes.

And he deserves to be on a roster. It's not always about straight line speed.

Not surprising that lil guy is trying to take the fun out of being a fan again. We all should strive to be so unattached like he is.

nobody deserves anything. theres no participation trophies. hes slow, short and cant get open. no teams determined he was worthy of a roster spot. but the amateur twitter coaches know all.

henry josey also deserved a roster spot. IN CANADA.

Quentin Gause gets got to make room

Lighten up Francis. It's fun to try and identify players. If you don't like it? Cool. You don't even watch or like college ball so it kinda makes sense.

1. dont call turner a "player." hes a practice body
2. i like college ball
3. i watch college ball

but close!

And he did deserve a spot based on the spirit and idea of fighting for a roster spot

These guys are told to come in and fight and claw for those final 3-4 spots (sometimes final 1-2 spots) and when someone does just that and makes plays on limited reps that's the whole idea sold to these guys.

[Rome]

I'm glad a Turner made the squad.  He earned it. 

[AshishPatel81]

With social media, it just gives those people an avenue to get those opinions out there so there will be more and more of them. Plus the NFL's coverage is at an all-time high and will continue to be so. I wouldn't be surprised if in 5 years networks start having Supplemental Draft specials. That is how insane the NFL popularity is now with their off the field business matters.

With the coverage the way it is, more casual fans watch preseason now and read people gushing about undrafted rookies all over blogs, and they freak out if they get cut. It's really no different than your typical idiot casual fan saying Carson Wentz is a bust after one game, that idiocy is just redirected toward other football subjects is all.

PT be fightin hard for that PT

lol you are so naive

this is some childish nfl propaganda you are buying into. but hey, if it warms your heart that paul turner is getting paid a little scratch then go crazy

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah I'm naive. You got it. Keep fighting the good fight...whatever it is.

[SD]

I'm happy Turner made it, underdog with heart, just like Rocky. But at the end of the day if he didn't make it who really gives a shtein.
