We rarely ever bring in anyone worth a damn after we create our final roster. Usually sign a scrub or two back and forth from the practice squad but I can't remember the last time we got anyone worth a damn in a trade or in free agency after the season started.

Well, how could we?
Pretty slim chance of a cut player from another team making an impact, and no one makes trades. Leaves a PS player maybe getting a chance (Armstead)

Armstead was never on the practice squad.

True, the only practice squadders I recall developing into quality players are Bush, Moore (although I think we claimed him from the Browns PS), and maybe Humber?

Whose practice squad was Humber on?

No ones. He was waived from IR during his 2nd season by the Colts and we picked him up 3 weeks later.
