Yes, they could sign him to our PS or any other teams.

What was the word on Geathers? Didn't somebody say he had attitude issues or something?
I did some searching and couldn't find anything. Was he just too raw to work with?
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

he is pretty raw because he's only had 2 years of DL play...but hes huge and has potential.
We released him because hes not ready for the 53, but Miami snapped him up so we lost him...kinda like Don Carey last year. but since hes free we can put him on our Practice Squad like i think we uanted to...

I think he is destined for our practice squad.
So he has to clear waivers, then he is a free agent, able to sign with anyone's practice squad.

Johnson has already been cut by two teams. First the Giants, now the Dolphins. We already have a crowded linebacking core so I don't see us having any interest in him.
I would love if we can get Geathers on the practice squad.

I don't see why anybody wants Geathers. The guy is huge, so what. He is an undisiplined hot head. In preseason his size meant nothing, he was pushed around constantly by 3 stringers.
If they add anyone to the practice squad, I hope it is someone who they can develop, I think that is not Geathers.

I think he is heading to the practice squad, that was probably the plan all along until the dolphins snagged him. He is young, good size and if he is teachable should be added as soon as he clears waivers.

No, i don't think so. IF i recall correctly, it was a defensive line guy that Atlanta picked.

Yeah, you're right. It was Corey Peters. Right school, wrong guy. Thanks.
