Hadn't realized we get two back now (might as well not have a limit, imo)...

I agree totally. The greater ability to rehab injuries and the tighter constraints over the designations makes the old rules obsolete. The IR rules were put in place to avoid "hiding" players for return the same season. That is much harder to get away with in today's atmosphere.

Let's make the new rule happen, SP, now that you're on the committee!

Personally, I like the idea of lower limits on the ceiling roster - don't like this stashing of players - show you know what you're doing and pick the right guys...

Also allows good players to seek, get opportunities elsewhere because a coach/personnel man lacks the vision, conviction to put players in a position to succeed...
