    Jacksonville poaches Toney Clemons from our practice squad

    Jaguars add four players to 53-man roster
    Posted by Michael David Smith on November 27, 2012, 4:13 PM EST

    In the kind of roster turnover you don’t often see in Week 13 of the NFL season, the Jaguars have signed four new players to their 53-man roster today.

    The team has announced that free-agent cornerback Antwaun Molden and free-agent wide receiver Quan Cosby were both signed to the roster. Jacksonville also took running back Jordan Todman off Minnesota’s practice squad and wide receiver Toney Clemons off Pittsburgh’s practice squad.

    Those four spots on the 53-man roster were available because running back Jalen Parmele (groin) and cornerback William Middleton (concussion) were placed on injured reserve, while wide receiver Micheal Spurlock and safety Chris Harris were released.

    The Jaguars also picked up defensive end Ryan Davis for the practice squad.

    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

      the Steelers will probably sign David Gilreath back to the practice squad again.

          Who cares. Dude most likely won't ever see playing time in a actual real NFL game in his career. Then again, he could be a Yancy Thigpen who scratched and clawed his way from being low draft pick to star, but I doubt it. Odds are not in his favor. Regardless, I don't care one bit that Jags signed him. Dude just hasn't been able to catch consistently.

            That is actually a decent poach by them looking toward next year. Kid is blazing fast, fairly big, and got jerked around in college by having 3 new OC's in 4 years.

                and it looks like Tampa Bay has already signed David Gilreath.

                  Maybe we can sign Hines back from the booth or El

                        Potentially good player, but with Gabbert throwing to him, guess we'll never know..

                            Former roster or practice squad members Clemons (Jaguars), offensive lineman Ryan Lee (Saints) and Gilreath (Buccaneers) were claimed this week.[from a Trib article]

                            Busy week for the PS.

                            Are those things mandated by the league? Is a team required to have one? I mean what's the difference where any of these players is sleeping. You already have a line on them and know what they can do. Whats the difference if they are in Seattle or Houston or anywhere. If you need one simply claim them. Let someone else pay them in the meanwhile.

                            I mean, all 3 of those players are promising. Gilreath already was helpful to the team. But, now they might just help some other team and up to now all at TS [the steelers] expense. There is no way at this time TS could block any of these raids? by bringing any of these players up to the 53. So, if they are really any good they will now help someone else. Me never could figure out why they have those things.

                              I'm especially sorry to see Ryan Lee go...I thought he showed some good potential. Legursky hasn't been that great at guard, and who knows when one of the others will go down with injury--seems to be a too-regular occurrence.
