NFL Week 13 Practice Squad Power Ranking

lovelystyle
Chiefs GM Brett Veach is a madman. A certifiably insane, brilliant madman.This dude traded in the offseason. Veach's idea was to replace Hill's production on the aggregate and divy money to others that would've gone solely to Hill. But there's no replacing Hill's speed, quickne s, and contested-catch combination. Right?To answer that, Veach spins around in his leather office chair, lit cigar between his teeth, laughing at those who strongly criticized his Hill decision.Because it worked out for Kansas City! is averaging more pa sing yards per game now than he ever has in a single season. The Chiefs are rolling offensively and haven't lost since mid October.But I'm not really here to discu s the Hill trade in depth. That's been done enough. To further prove Veach is genuinely a mad scientist, I present to some of his current practice squad and history of in-season acquisitions. Under his watch, let's name a few of players the Chiefs have signed or traded for in season: RB , RB , RB , WR , CB , EDGE , and former first-round CBs and . Veach can't stop, won't stop adding established veterans to the roster, and he cranked the intensity this season by acquiring EDGE in July and WR before the trade deadline. But, of course, he wasn't done. Before Week 13's monstrous showdown with the in Cincinnati, Veach Michael Raffl Kids Jersey signed RB , DT and WR to the practice squad.He's playing Madden on Franchise Mode except this is real life, and he's running the Chiefs.Now, normally, I reserve The PSPR for players in their first, second, or third seasons. To pay homage to Veach's relentle s aggre sion, I'm granting waivers to Williams and Edwards this week. Will they play against the Bengals? Probably not. Could they see the field in December or January. Don't be shocked when it happens. And don't be surprised when Gordon scores a touchdown in the playoffs. Back-to-back weeks, no one elevated. I'm not frustrated. Because I'm keenly aware, that just like an season, nothing comes easy at The PSPR. Every elevation is hard-earned. I love the challenge. That's fine. Before I begin, though, I must shout out PSPR alum , the No. 124 overall prospect on my final Big Board before the 2022 draft, who unceremoniously and unjustifiably went undrafted, for his 109 yards Jori Lehtera Women Jersey from scrimmage for the in their Week 12 win over Chicago. You made me damn proud, Zonovan. However, don't be shy to hit me up on Twitter to alert me about any PSPR members getting the glorious call this weekend.

The expanded, 16-man practice squads are about the only good thing to come out of the pandemic, and they're here to stay in the NFL. Because of this, I run the Practice Squad Power Rankings parallel to the league. I write about 16 individuals every Friday, 10 officially in the rankings and six honorable mentions. Here's to the Practice Squad Power Rankings flourishing this season and starting to cement its legacy in the hallowed halls of the internet's football-media industry.Outside of , Cleveland's defensive front -- WOOF! Perry started his college career at South Carolina State -- which low-key has sent a bunch of quality players to the NFL -- before transferring to Illinois. While he didn't have monster stats with the Illini, Perry's play in the summer was enough for him to make Cleveland's practice squad as an undrafted free agent. At 6-foot-1 and around 300 pounds, he's the penetrating type to Browns need to generate any semblance of interior disruption for opposing quarterbacks.Williams spent time as arguably the NFL's best pure nose tackle, from about 2014 to 2017, when he devoured running backs on a weekly basis in the middle of the Ravens vaunted defensive line. The now 33 year old dealt with two bouts of COVID during 2020 in Baltimore and played a part-time role in 2021. He's a ma sive human at around 6-1 and 335 pounds. With ailing, the Texans should turn to Johnson, a former Texas A&M star oozing with athleticism. Check his . He's a freak physically, and the Texans are at that point of the season where young players should get burn so team evaluators can decide who will be part of the future.Johnson is a larger-than-life blocker from Florida. It feels like that program pumps out plenty of those types, doesn't it? Anyway, the 6-foot-7, 330-pounder with an incredibly long reach went undrafted in 2019 despite a quality final season with the Gators and popped up on the PSPR on occasion over the past few years.Now, I know what you're thinking -- the Eagles don't need any offensive line reinforcement. Well, while that's undeniably true in regards to the starting unit, Johnson can be the consummate extra blocker to step onto the field in jumbo-package situations. I watched so much of Emezie in college. Why Dustin Tokarski Kids Jersey 's that? Because he started showing out early at NC State, on those Wolfpack teams led by , , , , and . As a freshman, Emezie had 13 receptions for 163 yards with a score. After that, the 6-3, 220-pounder had over 45 receptions and 575 yards in four consecutive seasons, while catching 18 touchdowns.Peevy doesn't provide as much positional flexibility as some of the other Titans defensive linemen, but he's similarly sized to and boasts high- Wayne Simmonds Women Jersey end traits. At 6-5 and around 310 pounds, the former big-time recruit has 35.5-inch arms -- ridiculously long -- and slowly but surely improved in each of his five seasons with the Aggies as a block-shedding run stuffer capable of impre sive pa s-rush flashes.Hand is a twitched-up inside-outside corner who began his career in the NFC North with the . As a rookie, on le s than 16% of the snaps in 2020, the former Temple standout proved the bright lights of the NFL weren't too much for him, as he registered a pick and three pa s breakups. Chicago's dealing with injuries to safety and second-round rookie at the cornerback spot. Now's the time to give Hand an opportunity. Johnson was the of the FBS while at North Dakota State. He was a weapon underneath and in the jet-sweep game because of his immense YAC ability and made routine snags down the football field. Johnson had back-to-back 1,200-plus yard seasons and scored 17 touchdowns in 2018. been tremendous this season yet could use another bouncy wideout to pair with and in Seattle.Thompkins had five catches for 53 yards -- including
