“Sneaky” WR Trent Sherfield signing

[captain stone]

So we signed this 8-year vet (29-year old) WR to the practice squad in the last week: Trent Sherfield Sr **

Some highlights:


He is 6-1, 206 and previously played on Vikings, 49ers, & Donkeys.

Now when I was reading the other “sneaky signing” thread ( credit @SONS_OF_BELICHICK) , I kind of mentally poo-pooed the whole signed DE Darrel Taylor to get intel on the Roughnecks. But now that I noticed this signing that was buried in with 3-4 other PS moves, I’m wondering if there isn’t actually a little strategy & truth to that going on here by Vrabel & crew.

Maybe Shefrield gives them data on potential AFCCG & SB teams while Taylor rats out the Texans. ??

The other thought is that him being relatively almost tall ( 6-1 ), that he is the insurance policy for Mack Hollins. But I don’t like that thought ( that Mack ain’t back), so I don’t wanna go there.

In the draft.

And how's that gonna help us if Even One of our 5 DBs goes down in Denver?

It won't.

You can only have 45 guys active for gameday. How many CBs do you think these other teams carry to gameday?

I don’t buy that a player is going to really give you more than what you can see on game film.

At least not somebody of Sherfield's lowly status.
