  Steelers | Looking at RB help    Mon Aug 4, 02:23 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin is paying extra attention to some running backs on the roster like RBs Tauren Poole, Miguel Maysonet, and Josh D. Harris. Those three are thought to be on the 53-man roster bubble.

Footballguys view: We like Poole the most here, but he's a longshot to ever make much of an impact as a pro. Poole is not the biggest back, but he's disciplined and can effectively run between the tackles. Maysonet is built low to the ground, and he looks like a poor man's version of Maurice Jones-Drew on the field.

  Steelers | Four signed to futures contracts    Tue Jan 7, 04:16 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed free-agent CB Devin Smith (Steelers), LB Daniel Molls (Chargers), RB Miguel Maysonet (Chargers) and WR Lanear Sampson (Colts) to Reserve/Futures contracts Tuesday, Jan. 7.

Footballguys view: Maysonet is the interesting player to watch here. He's a smaller back, but was ultra productive in college at Stony Brook. The 2013 undrafted free agent spent time with six different teams this season. Monitor him in super deep dynasty leagues.

  Jets | Clyde Gates, Mike Goodson to IR    Tue Oct 15, 04:35 PM

The New York Jets placed WR Clyde Gates (shoulder) and RB Mike Goodson (knee) on the season-ending Injured Reserve Tuesday, Oct. 15. Gates had 12 catches for 122 yards on the season. The team also signed RB Miguel Maysonet from the practice squad to their active roster.

Footballguys view: The Jets added wide receiver depth when they signed Greg Salas off the Eagles practice squad earlier today. Maysonet gives them running back depth behind Bilal Powell and Chris Ivory.

  Chargers | Miguel Maysonet signed    Wed Oct 2, 10:09 AM

The San Diego Chargers signed free-agent RB Miguel Maysonet (Colts) to the practice squad.

Footballguys view: Maysonet is a small back who runs with a lot of heart. At Stony Brook Maysonet was difficult to tackle because of his low center of gravity, balance, and burst. He is worth monitoring in super deep dynasty leagues.

  Colts | Practice squad moves    Wed Sep 25, 06:02 PM

The Indianapolis Colts re-signed WR Da'Rick Rogers and RB Kerwynn Williams to their practice squad Wednesday, Sept. 25, and released WR Danny Coale and RB Miguel Maysonet in a corresponding move.

Footballguys view: Both Rogers and Williams are interesting players to keep an eye on in super deep dynasty leagues. Rogers has a nice size/speed combination and can be a good red zone target. Williams is a good change of pace back because of his speed and elusiveness.

  Colts | Miguel Maysonet signs    Mon Sep 16, 01:23 PM

The Indianapolis Colts signed free-agent RB Miguel Maysonet (Browns) to their practice squad Monday, Sept. 16.

Footballguys view: Maysonet was hyper productive in college at Stony Brook. He's a smaller back but runs with good balance, pad level and forward lean. They need to harvest running back talent as they're thin at that spot.

  Browns | Make roster moves    Tue May 21, 05:15 PM

The Cleveland Browns were awarded RB Miguel Maysonet (Eagles) off waivers from the Eagles and waived RB Jamaine Cook Tuesday, May 21.

Footballguys view: Maysonet has good instincts for running the football. He is built low to the ground and runs with good balance and agility between the tackles. Maysonet will compete with Dion Lewis, Montario Hardesty, Brandon Jackson and Chris Ogbonnaya to fit into the backfield behind starter Trent Richardson.

  Eagles | Miguel Maysonet released    Mon May 20, 09:32 AM

The Philadelphia Eagles released RB Miguel Maysonet.

Footballguys view: The undrafted rookie from Stony Brook became expendable when the Eagles added Felix Jones last week. He's got good balance, leg drive, and burst. Maysonet should be able to latch on somewhere else for training camp.

  Eagles | Expected to cut Miguel Maysonet    Sun May 19, 04:13 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to waive RB Miguel Maysonet.

Footballguys view: The undrafted rookie from Stony Brook wasn't needed on the roster after the team added Felix Jones last week. He'll be able to catch on with another team before training camp.

  Eagles | Nine undrafted players signed    Mon Apr 29, 05:11 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed undrafted free-agent LB Jake Knott (Iowa State), RB Miguel Maysonet (Stony Brook), C Kyle Quinn (Arizona), DL Isaac Remington (Oregon), WR Russell Shepard (Louisiana State), DL Damion Square (Alabama), OG Matt Tobin (Iowa), RB Matthew Tucker (Texas Christian) and P Brad Wing (Louisiana State). Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Deep dynasty league owners need to keep an eye on Maysonet and Shepard here. Maysonet is a compact runner who was hyper-productive in college at Stony Brook. He averaged 151.1 rushing yards per game which ranked second in the nation. He didn't just beat up on weak competition as evidenced by his 158 yard performance against Syracuse. He's a violent runner with quickness. Shepard came to LSU as the number one athlete in the nation and initially tried his hand at quarterback. He transitioned to wide receiver and never developed. He's an intriguing deep prospect.
