so what is the deal is Cross getting released or going to injured list??
They are able to move guys around , as opposed to a standard look, with 3 natural, bigger LBs; I always thought they should get a bigger MLB and move Bighill to OLB (Will i guess) where he might do more damage. Bighill can move - didn't he play safety in the NFL with the Saints ?
Lavoie played some slotback as well as H-back with Ottawa - more of a receiver; not sure if his blocking is that great; can't see Cross being replaced cause they think Lavoie is an upgrade ? And why wouldn't Pellerin get a chance instead of bringing in a guy who was always average at best ?

Brutal, knee-jerk reaction if a proven vet misses one assignment and gets called on the carpet; Lavoie is a vet and maybe they figure they need more vet leadership (not sure why though?); as far as a big talent upgrade - he is not; not even close, and his hands as a targeted receiver in the Ottawa offence were often iffy.
I still don’t think Darby would have made this team tbh. He was a solid player on a bad team and like where the team is now with their secondary. The trade was bad but I wouldn’t be against his release if the players today are much better and deserving to start.

"Calling on the carpet" is harsh-sound rhetoric, but it happens all the time in sports. Every player expects to be held accountable for performance. If a guy misses an assignment, he can expect to hear about it. None of us knows who was responsible for allowing the punt to be blocked, but whoever was responsible no doubt had to endure the misery of that play being shown to the full group during film review, possibly multiple times. The individual(s) might also have been spoken to privately by a coach or two. In extreme cases, a guy might get benched or even cut for making a major mistake. I don't think anyone is cutting Declan Cross, but I'm sure he would accept responsibility for the mistake if he made it, or even if someone else made it since he is a special-teams captain.

Justin Tuggle returns, Jalen Collins added.
It's nice to have Tuggle back. Hopefully he's just depth behind Muamba and not an indication that there are long term problems in the middle.
The signing of Tuggle may also be wanted by Chris Jones as a measure to diversify the defense even if Muamba returns soon. They could go 3-4 on some plays.
