As of today, practice squad looks like this:
OL Thomas Austin
FB Eric Kettani
WR Sam Kirkland
OL Matt Kopa
TE Alex Silvestro
LB Jeff Tarpinian
DB Malcolm Williams
So there we have obviously mostly guys who serve as backups, but are there enough developmental players in regards to different skill positions?
I would like to see a RB added there, just to try and find another downhill runner in case either Bolden or Ridley goes down on a injury. Vereen and Woodhead neither qualify for that role and two scatbacks is more than enough, but with downhill runners I would prefer having some insurance policy.
Ofc we have Hernandez who can also play as a RB, but I dont know whether he is a downhill-type of guy as a RB.
Also, bringing in more WRs might also be a good idea. Our active roster WR depth is shallow at the moment, and our future on that position looks also a bit rugged. Despite PS players rarely see real action they are the in facto backups for the first team after the trade deadline, and at least they get a chance to learn the style of offense and perhaps come better equipped to the OTAs next year to fight for a roster spot.
