When asked about this MOS said he still needs time and it was more a financial move than anything else....not sure how that works. But I'm not betting on habba being back anytime soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 Think they have the right mix on D right now for what they want to do. Wouldn't change it for Haba unless opportunity opens up with injury. BBlink, rebusrankin and K-Shack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to take an American off the roster as far as I can see. Could be Ayers if they think they have enough on special teams but I don't think that would be a great move. To me it's Woods/Adams or nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not betting on habba being back anytime soon The financials part makes sense. If a team has multiple guys extended on the six game (and they have missed 7 or more games), 2 of those guys can come off the list without a cap hit. Any additional players pulled early, would have their salary count against the cap. They haven't used one of those 2 exemptions yet (afaik) so leaving Lawler on the 6 game while moving Haba to the one game makes financial sense since they can pull Lawler off and won't get the cap hit. Haba is much cheaper so his hit is manageable. Piggy 1, Atomic, bluedawg and 2 others 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first 6 games would be exempt from the SMS. Also, Lawler isnt going on the 6 game injured list for a 2nd time. He will be rostered or put on the one game list.

Yeah, wasn't clear enough, as soon as they miss the original 6 games, the salary for those games do not count. If they are extended on the six game list and then pulled early, the additional games (7-11) would count unless they are one of the 2 exceptions. Lawler has missed 8 games & was extended on the 6 game so they can use one exemption on him and not be on the hook for those 2 games. Quote Players added to the 6-game injured list have their salaries excluded from the salary cap for the duration they are on the list. Teams may remove two players who has been on the 6-game injured list for seven games or more without penalty. Teams may remove an unlimited number of players from the 6-game injured list before their 6-game period is completed. If they do so, the player's salary while on the injured list retroactively counts against the salary cap. TBURGESS and WinnipegGordo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it's Woods/Adams or nothing. woods or adams would be the stupidest move.....if they do include him...which would make us a way stronger defensive front with him taking reps from Hubert and Thomas....I would think Ayers is odd man out as he never gets defensive reps....and that in itself is also stupid...but we acclimated now to stupid roster stuff. Missing Ayers on coverage wont sink us...Haba also has played teams....Kelly is back now too....which helps I'm more worried that Osh will start Lawler...Good.....at expense of Lucky....bad.....and continue with Johnson...not as bad as it was but Lucky offers us that something different...Wilson and Johnson are basically the same player...Plus you effectively cut yourself off at the knees for a injury replacement with your returner....who is less than stellar as it is, and whoever would replace him....would be even lesser than stellar...unless you had a Whitehead on the roster in the 5th receiver slot And if Osh continues the neeed to keep trotting Johnson out there, then make the chamge at returner...he's had more games than Smith now and made no improvement either.....so either swap those two out and you have a change of pace back who actually can catch....and has top tier speed.....or use Lucky there who has the same top tier speed....and the big key...is a vet....who knows his **** and knows the league...and knows the opposition Piggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 Seems obvious that Lucky should take Johnson's spot and Lawler takes Lucky's spot. Piggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I see both Smith and Case having the ability. But if it means keeping Lucky on the roster and playing the occasional offensive snap then that gives us a lot more punch to our roster. I'm not a huge fan of Adams being demoted but I could see it coming. Haba provides more versatility and needs to be given the opportunity he was supposed to have at the start of the year.

M.O.A.B. Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 So Haba comes in, probably rotates with Garbutt on the edge. Either one of them also rotates inside with Wood. I'm expecting Whitehead to get call in kick return. I would like him to start and spelled by Johnston whenever. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BomberBall. Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 Sitting Adams is absolutely asinine. Wasn’t the D a well oiled machine last time out against BC? Why mess with that? I just don’t get it.

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 Adams is a better player, and plays hard every down. Haba is pretty meh and doesn’t finish many games. Kind of surprised he’s still around. We definitely could use an edge rusher but I remain skeptical he will be it.

rebusrankin Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 I don't get taking Adams off. Take a guy like Ayers off who doesn't get reps on D. Also what in the world has Josh Johnson done to stay on the roster? BomberBall., BigBlueFanatic, Piggy 1 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
