    I don't know, they hold up a roster spot for Turbin and wait how many weeks for him to rehab? Then you finally get to see him fumble the ball a couple of times, and then he gets cut. Did someone, anyone not do their homework on this guy before they claimed him off waivers? This is just another example of Farmer and his scouting dept flying by the seat of their pants.

    Can somebody please tell me what it costs to sign players for a week or two & then cut them? Seems to me that, if nothing else, it makes us look silly.

    Pro-rate their salary which in most cases is league minimum... $435k. Turbine's rate was $660k.

    Add incidentals like travel, uni, physical... maybe $4k???

    sounds about right Tour. 1\16th of your salary for every week you stick on the roster. None of those guys contracts are guaranteed.

    And Shaun Draugn started for the 49ners last week! Maybe we can get Willis McGahee!
