This was my thinking too. Allen will probably have some teams very hot and very cold on him. And a guy like that is more likely to get picked up than Cain for example - who might be just lukewarm for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackfish Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 8 minutes ago, LeanMeanGM said: I was thinking about this the other day. A lot of talk was about how Howie generally keeps 3 QB's on the roster, but I don't know how much water that argument holds. 2016 and a lot of 2017 was just 2 QB's. 2018 and 2019 was 3. I think the decision to keep 3 in 2020 and 2021 has a lot more to do with COVID than anything else. With the relaxed testing rules, it will be interesting to see how they go at it in 2022. Sinnett isn't a guy worth a spot, IMO. He isn’t but if Miami puts Skylar Thompson on the PS, hopefully the Eagles don’t ruin him like they did Sinnett. Going back years you are correct, Howie sets the roster and in previous seasons, he only kept two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But gun to head, all 3 get cut. End of the day, getting to 55 was easy, that was my point Hightower had the most pro experience was a drafted player that Howie seems to cling to and showed up a little in the pre season doing something he's shield away from since here, catching passes over the middle. He's shown he can be a legit field stretcher in the past his problem has always been playing through contact before during and after catch. If he can contribute on teams he'll have a chance to stick though Allen looked great as a gunner and covey can return kicks/punts I'd guess all 3 get cut we'll see.

mattwill Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 21 minutes ago, bbabraham said: Thanks for posting. I agree broadly. The tough one for me is Allen. He absolutely has no business making the team for his WR performance but the way he performed as a gunner on ST on Saturday makes the spot justifiable. You're more willing to carry someone for their potential if they're contributing on ST. And given his higher profile, you'd think he's more likely to get picked up by another team than some of your other fringe guys. Keeping Allen does have some opportunity cost of course. The Eagles have done really well to build OL depth and other teams know it. I'd think Anderson and Awosika are at risk of being snapped up by other teams - especially because other teams know the Eagles are deep at OL and would value a Stoutland-trained OL. Kaplan and Mosher are well connected in the NFL and think Covey makes the team. I haven't seen enough in the games as either a return specialist or a WR to make me think he'll make the 53 but they do have good sources - so we'll see. Tartt vs Blankenship vs Chachere vs Scott is another area I don't have a good feel for. It looks like Tartt may be cut but as I mentioned, that might just be contract games to avoid a fully guaranteed contract. He could be back shortly. I already had Allen on my 53 based on how his speed translated to the field in the TD reception. His STs Gunner work against the Dolphins cemented that decision. He is probably one of my 48 Actives each week as a Gunner and the occasional WR snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and when they did keep 3 it was for very obvious reasons like Wentz not being ready for Week 1 in 2018 and then 2019 he was coming back from a back fracture.

This isn't a joke about Hurts being a RB, but he is, essentially a short yardage/RZ running back with his style of play. I don't see the need of a 4th guy with Sanders, Scott, Gainwell and then what Hurts does in the run game. They can just put someone on the PS.
