Hope he catches on somewhere else or lands on the practice squad.
I hope we find a way to keep him. There was an article a week or so ago noting he was impressive, but the Ravens are deep at that position. Quote from a local article, "While Daka is among the first cuts, this could be a case where the Ravens are hoping to sneak him through to their practice squad where they can continue his development this season for another shot next year."
Agree. I also saw that they want him to get in the weight room so he can better set the edge against the run. He's listed at 224 which is a big ask to be an effective run stopper in the NFL. Would love to get him on the Ravens practice squad. The expansion of the practice squad to 16 will hopefully work in his favor.
Or stuff him on the IR for a season and let him bulk up.

Cowboys released QB Clayton Thorson. Looks good for DiNucci at the moment

Saw another Cowboys beat writer have a 53 man prediction, kept DiNucci but no sign of Ron'Dell

As a true Washington Football Club, and JMU fan I will root for injury to Dak.

Would love the Redskins (WFT) to pick him up. Even if it is just practice squad.

RE: #ProDukes - Longhorn - 09-07-2020 09:49 PM
So, 7 Dukes on the 53 man rosters is the final count? That must be a record number, and an indication (and recruiting boast) of how strong the program has become.

JMU has the most players on 53 man rosters out of the FCS.

That's awesome and will help on the recruiting trail. Would love to know where that number would place us within the G5 and all of CF.

I think if there had been a pre-season and he done fairly well he would not have cleared waivers. With other teams not being able to even see him as a UDFA it is hard to take that chance.

We got a callout in the FCS section for having the most. Also interesting to see who we tied and are ahead of as far as FBS teams:
7: ASU, Baylor, BYU, CSU, NW, SDSU, Syracuse, Washington
6: Duke, GT, USF, WKU
5: Appy, Arizona, GSU, ISU, KSU, Marshall, NIU, West Mich
Not going to analyze it right now, but nearly all of the schools with more than 7 are P5. For JMU to start the season with 7 on rosters and a couple more that could be called up at any point during the season is incredibly impressive. It used to be that having 2-3 was exciting.
RE: #ProDukes - Dukester - 09-08-2020 04:38 PM
Not a bad recruiting tool.
Thanks Withers/Houston.
RE: #ProDukes - DooX - 09-08-2020 05:09 PM
I think at least 5 of the 7 are Mickey recruits. Moreland came in with Withers, but I don't recall if he had already committed before the coaching change. DiNucci was obviously Houston.

Cowboys protected practice squad players in week 1: LB Francis Bernard, DB Deante Burton, DE Ron'Dell Carter, and RB Sewo Olonilua.
