Does anyone have a clue about when and how the PR is allowed to be increased?
MTL has 17 players listed, and the Ticats have 10. I guess PR positions cost money, so...

I don't know if this is accurate, but it is what I found when I asked "The Google". Practice roster sizes are set at a maximum of 12 players, consisting of a minimum of 1 National player and a maximum of 9 American players and 2 Global players. A minimum of 1 National player is required, and if the practice roster consists of 7 players, a minimum of 2 National players are required. If 11 spots are used, 1 player must be a Global player and if 12 spots are used, 2 players must be classified as Global players. In 2020 and 2021 an additional Global player is allowed on the practice roster, bring the total allowed to 13. Practice roster expansion occurs for 30 days coinciding with the period after the NFL roster cut down period increases the roster by five (5) players to a maximum of 17 in the fall. Starting in 2015 teams have the ability to choose when their 30 day expansion period begins within the league window, which in 2015 started Sept. 5 and ended Nov. 8. cfldb.ca/faq/rosters/ |

The expanded PR is in place right now for another couple of weeks. Good to know our crack Front Orifice Staff is on the ball and signing players to the PR in order to evaluate them for next year.
Yet another failure this year for this team.

So "okie" on The Prowl mentioned that the teams can start that 30-day window whenever they wish after the final round of cuts.
It's difficult to imagine that the bottomless pit of unemployed football players south of the border are any worse than the players we now have (receiver, DL, younger DBs).
If, in fact, the pit only has a thin film of "better" players floating on it, then those teams who have signed them first may, in fact, have pared-down the available talent to teams who decide to activate their window at a later time.

Hard to believe there are no receivers out there better than the crew this team employs.

I would hope we get to see one or more of Tony Brown or Godwin as well as the return of Anthony Johnson in the last few weeks of the season. Could be next game depending on Papi White’s status. Whoever is more of a punt returner is most likely to get a shot. |

So more par for the course for the Cats Franchise. Lets overvalue the players that Stein and crew brought in because to bring in other players is an admission that they did a crappy job of talent evaluation going into this season.
Hamilton and Ottawa are such colossal joke of a football franchise.
