They need to increase roster size by 6 players, at least. Then forget about PUP and returning from IR. Everybody knows the rosters are silly small. Those cheap bastards.

They should continue with an inactive list, that is a smart idea to mitigate luck of injuries.

I don't think owners will want to increase roster size unless the union really demands it. I wonder about something like a 4 or 6 game version of IR... or relaxing the PUP rules so you don't have to be injured at the start of training camp. Agree the DL rules are stupid.

How much money are we really talking about here? It's not like the expanded roster will be filled with expensive top talent. Probably a few more guys at NFL minimum or thereabouts. If resistance to expanded rosters is about the money then these guys are needlessly cheapos.
