How so? I see it as a good thing. It means what we already have was better than him.

SP has been doing fantasy lineup like changes for years. Maybe Orlando will be back, and then cut, and then back and then cut, and then back. Would it really be surprising? SP likes to have at least one move per day or he doesn't get his bonus, lol.

It was rumored that he wasn't 100% yet. This is just more roster shuffling. Its possible he will be back in a few weeks.

It could very well be a great sign, but our current crop of guards being better than Franklin doesn't necessarily mean they're ready for prime time either though. Maybe it's just an indication of how far Franklin has fallen. I was hoping he'd solidify himself as a starter and we could move Peat back to his true position. Depending on how good Ramcyzk plays that could make Armstead expendable. We could probably get great value back for him.

Well that clarifies things a little. No use in having an injured guy who doesn't know the system either.
