Perhaps he was totally clueless about our system (that wouldn't be a shocker)

There is nothng wrong with bringing in multiple players. We're evaluating them. There is absolutely nothing wrong with kicking the tires on numerous players. It helps us identify how they may or may not fit in if a certain player is injured.

Do you know for a fact that we're the only team that does this?

They knew he was injured when they got him. It was assumed that he would contribute once he came back, but he didn't get the chance. 6 days isn't time to know what the hell you have. So it just becomes a pointless move, something to do just for the heck of it. And that is my point and my problem with it. James Anderson is 32. What's he gonna do, find the fountain of youth? Kicking those tires will only result in a scuff mark on your shoe.

I don't follow the daily transactions of all teams but I have done so for the Saints, through several regimes, and have never seen so much pointless shuffling. So I find it hard to believe it's the norm for anyone. And it shouldn't be, for the reasons I've given.

That joke would be funny if they had released Watson in the process.

It wasn't a joke. It was a direct insult to those that over-react to bottom of the roster shuffling.

Chaos, disorder, confusion. Sean P is shuffling guys around like he is playing Madden. Someone better tell James Anderson to see if he can get a 6 day lease on an apt. He probably won't be around long.

I'd be very surprised if Ellerbe is healthy enough to play on Sunday.

Really? Who has he shuffled in and out of our gameday roster?

We all understand that it's bottom roster shuffling, moving Mohamed after only a week in black and gold, back and forth with Joe Morgan etc. The way folks in Houston were beaming about Mohamed, I thought he would stick around for more than 6 days. Maybe SP next roster move should be members of the coaching staff

.

As a few have stated before, it just seems pointless.

Exactly. It was a sarcastic joke directed at those of us who think all this roster moving crap is dumb. You don't actually think been Watson is being replaced, so it was a joke.

Pretty simple.

Its not pointless, it goes on with every team.

Yes, absolutely, especially with teams bumping the cap for the next year or two.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
