Wrote: Is there really anyway to hide/stash someone on a practice squad.  I mean, I see that term being used all of the time in posts but I'd have to think the 1st place GMs looks to when seeking player cuts are the players that they actually retained on their practice squad since those players are essentially the top quality of young players that didn't make the teams 53 man roster.

The only way I can think to try to "hide/stash" someone on a practice squad is to limit or not play a certain young player in the preseason games, thereby limiting his tape/exposure to other teams.  On a sports radio station when I was on business in Dallas, they indicated that each week a team may protect up to 4 practice squad players, from Tuesday through gameday.  However, basically on Monday, even those practice squad players are exposed to pickup by another team.  I don't know if this is correct or just radio speculation on the rules.
