I guess I agree that you shouldn't be able to angleshoot with the extra bench spots but I think it's kinda meh that you have to drop a play just to add somebody to IR but whatever.
Because it defeats the reasoning behind the IR slot in the first place. We didn't expand to 21, we added an IR to be able to shelter one of our hurt players. If one of your players is hurt, you place them in your IR slot, and you pick up someone else. Once they come off IR, soon as you notice you must drop someone. His angleshoot is on par with the one where you notice your guy came off IR, but pretend to not notice until everyone plays to see how everyone does, and then pick a guy to drop (maybe someone else who gets hurt).
Fact is he would have had to drop a decent enough player to get the guy he wanted to stash, and he skirted it. Not the end of the world by any stretch, but it's a move I think most of us wouldn't pull.
