Haven't we in the past paid PS players a couple of hundred K not to sign with another team?You are mistaken.

Obi Melifonwu comes to mind. I think the new CBA banned this practice, and everyone has to receive the minimumHaven't we in the past paid PS players a couple of hundred K not to sign with another team?

Kept Miller because of Harris injury
Kept Burt even though I liked Rizzo, blocking never stood out, Burt can be back up FB
Cut Cunningham kept Herron who is a more obvious practice squad guy
DE is a weak position. Anticipated cutting Wise this year, not happening, don't know what Rivers is, liked Calhoun last preseason but didn't show up in games.
J. Williams does double duty CB/Safety. cut special teamers, Davis, Bethel,

I suppose it is a reaction to how NFL football has changed to being such a pass oriented game now. The nickel is now the primary formation, placing a larger need on defensive backs. Plus players at those positions tend to be fast and know how to tackle, making them more useful on special teams (punt and kickoff coverage in particular) than most other position players.11 defensive backs, sounds about right for a bb coached team.
