Have no reason WHY there is a space here for Palko....But the others seem cut and dry. Would rather see J.Will back on PS. He is a nice change of pace back, and IF 1 of the top 2 go down, we need a backup. Todd has to rid himself of pride, and realise, some folks just aren't cut out to be football players.

I really don't understand the reasoning behind keeping Palko either. There has to be someone that can fill a roster spot that is better than him.

I'm guessing it's if MC goes down, we already have one signed. However, we better hope it's in the last few minutes of a game and McCluster can play QB as well. Single wing, anyone? 
Seriously, get me a journeyman QB just for insurance.
I still think Harris will make it as well as Gales. The rest, meh.

Just my opinion, I could be wrong. And I'm sure some of you will tell me I am. But I'm not. Peace out, y'all!!

For about 5 seconds that registered with me as "Nate Harris is available."

I think most teams keep a QB on the practice squad, in part as a developmental prospect, and in part in case there is a need for a scout team QB because of injury or other absence.
Homer: [reading] "Project Arcturus couldn't have succeeded without you. This will get you a little closer to that dream of yours. It's not the Dallas Cowboys, but it's a start. Drop me a line if you're on the East Coast, Hank Scorpio." Aw, the Denver Broncos!
Marge: I think owning the Denver Broncos is pretty good.
Homer: Yeah, yeah.
Marge: Well, explain to me why it isn't.
Homer: [sighs] You just don't understand football, Marge.

I understand that, but I think there are better options than Tyler Palko as of this point.

I don't disagree. But it probably has a lot to do with him already knowing the system. Also, I think once a player has enough experience, he's not eligible for practice squad. So a guy like Patrick Ramsey (better than Palko) isn't eligible.

Correct, but the Chiefs don't have 3 QB's on the active roster. I'm not sure I'd want to take chances of having only two QB's on the roster, considering Croyle's inability to stay healthy.
