It’s time to start raiding practice squads: Offense edition

We’re only 5 weeks into the 2020 season, and whether it’s a “re-build” or “win now,” the Washington Football Team looked like hot garbage yesterday. Sure, there are lots of young guys still honing their craft on this team, but there are also positions where, from starter to “depth,” the talent is so depauperate, we really need to start looking for outside help.

One possible option is to poach players from other teams’ practice squads, recognizing we’d have to free up space on the 53-man roster in order to accommodate them. In fact, we just lost former 7th round pick Jordan Brailford (DE) to the Vikings in such a move.
