Culberson back to replace Draft

[RAMarkable]

The only thing that worries me is Culberson went from being cut to being a starter. So he wasnt good enough to make the team the other day but now he's good enough to be the starter? That would be my only concern.

Yeah, just what I was thinking also. NTM no other team picking him up either after he was cut gives us a pretty good idea what the rest of the league thinks of him.

WHAT SAY YE?

Agreed, what the heck are they thinking?

I could be wrong, but I don't think they meant QC is replacing Draft as a starter. They probably meant he's taking Draft's roster spot.

One other note: Veterans like Draft are guaranteed their salary once the season starts. The Rams wanted to re-work his contract and might've figured they wouldn't get it done by Sunday. He may be cut for now, but if Draft doesn't get any big offers from another team, it's possible he could re-sign next week or sometime for the league minimum.

Excellent point EDM! You have your thinking cap on tonight!

Culberson isnt the starter, just replacing him on the roster

David Vobora had already passed Draft for the starting job at SLB, which is why draft became expendable
