Because they knew they'd lose him on the way to a PS and because they had little talent to challenge for the roster spot. Although he had risen to #2 by the end of the season overtaking Friese and Bishop. They traded for Damon Huard in the off season as insurance, but Tom held him off and nearly displaced Bledsoe out of the gate in 2001 but for the experience factor (aka we just signed Bledsoe to a $100M deal...).
All the guys on the practice squad are making around 8k. Salas was making 27k.
I hope Salas is targeted some today - he's got size and speed. I loved it when they picked him and this could be precisely the spot where he helps out. Branch is a favorite of mine, but clearly not able to get open like he could year ago. Salas could be used in the slot if Welker's ankle gives him trouble.
Yep, roster is still there and everything.Branch clears waivers. I suspect he is on the shadow roster now.
