Louisville Slugger Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hauptmann was on our practice squad last season and he sucked. Hopefully he is a better fit for the zone blocking scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballpeen Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Whats his contract situation? He probably wasnt worth the money hes owed. If he was cut he doesn't have a contract....we start from scratch....at least from the veteran minimum based on his tenure in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin J Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 If he was cut he doesn't have a contract....we start from scratch....at least from the veteran minimum based on his tenure in the league.Not true, if you claim a player on waivers you assume their current contract.

TexasAg1969 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Whats his contract situation? He probably wasnt worth the money hes owed. It;s a good question for which I do not know the answer. Someone more knowledgeable than me could probably research that out.This is all I could find. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/seattle-seahawks/eric-winston/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I had a site that had contract terms.... but damned if I can find it now... However, I did find... http://www.rotoworld.com/recent/nfl/3648/eric-winston The president of the NFLPA is out of a day job once again. Winston, 30, was brought in on a flier to see if he could unseat rookie Justin Britt at right tackle, but apparently struggled just as badly as he did while getting embarrassed as a Cardinal last season. Aug 30 - 1:26 PM ... and... Winston, 30, started all 16 games at right tackle for the Cardinals last season, but struggled both in the run and pass games and graded out as a bottom-eight tackle at Pro Football Focus. In Seattle, the favorite for starting right-tackle duties is Michael Bowie. Second-round rookie Justin Britt is also in the mix to replace the departed Breno Giacomini. Winston will simply compete for a spot. Jul 29 - 10:32 AM I knew he disappointed out of school and went further south after an injury, but did not realize that he had slid so far.

Zombo Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Browns signing Vinston Painter off Broncos practice squad Posted by Josh Alper on September 2, 2014, 4:26 PM EDT AP The Browns are continuing to shuffle their roster ahead of the start of the regular season. Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports that Cleveland is signing offensive lineman Vinston Painter off of Denver’s practice squad and adding him to their 53-man roster. The move will be guaranteed three weeks of pay at the active roster level even if the team should decide to move in a different direction. Painter has not played in a regular season game since the Broncos made him the 173rd pick in last year’s draft, but has seen time at tackle and guard in practices and the preseason. He’s the third offensive lineman added to the roster since the team set their initial 53-man roster, joining waiver acquisitions Ryan Seymour and Caylin Hauptmann as new members of the Browns. The Broncos have signed long snapper Kevin McDermott to the practice squad to take Painter’s place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erie Dawg Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 This seems like a panicked disaster in the making or is this another one of the dime a dozen fat ass lineman that's going to lead us to the next level. I don't remember being this busy with waivers before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
