Sit everybody and activate the entire practice squad.

The problem with that is you have to cut 8 players to activate the 8 players on the PS.

Thats why there's so much cut/sign roster shuffling going on outside of the PS now.

And if you activate a PS player, he counts against your 53 man roster (and you have to pay him) for 3 weeks.

If teams can avoid activating a PS player and simply cut/sign guys on the street, it gives them much more roster flexibility heading into the playoffs.
