ig: josinaandersonVerified account @JosinaAnderson Free agent CB Bashaud Breeland is scheduled to travel Sunday for a visit with the #Dolphins, per source. Pretty solid from stats, be our #2 guy, considered a legitimate starter Had several visits so far...Ravens, Patriots, and the Raiders shown interest... Issue $$$$$ think thats whats prevented him from being signed up till now.. 26 years old with 4 years experience: During his four seasons in Washington, Breeland started 58 games. He combined for 211 tackles, 8 interceptions, and 7 forced fumbles. Coming off a non football injury. Cut foot that got infected (think its healed now)
From what I've read, we are very interested in adding him but the article mentioned that he had to be in playing shape and the money would have to work out. Several teams are looking at him so I hope he signs on the dotted line today.
I'm curious about some actions we might take relative to this potential signing. 1) Will we wait until we get down to a 53 man roster before we try to sign him? 2) Will other interested teams wait until the cut down to a 53 man roster? 3) Will we trade away someone to make room for him? 4) Will we drop someone to make room for him? 4) Who will that someone be? 5) Are we allowed to carry less than a 53 man roster without being in conflict with some NFL requirement?
1. No 2. No 3. No 4a. Yes 4b. One of the 2 kickers we currently have on our roster? 5. I don't know, I would assume it's ok but why? This provides no advantage when spending someone else's money.
